Topological interfaces in Chern-Simons theory and $AdS_3/CFT_2$ (1810.08713v2)
Published 19 Oct 2018 in hep-th
Abstract: Recently, topological interfaces between three-dimensional abelian Chern-Simons theories were constructed. In this note we investigate such topological interfaces in the context of the $AdS_3/CFT_2$ correspondence. We show that it is possible to connect the topological interfaces in the bulk Chern-Simons theory to topological interfaces in the dual CFT on the boundary. In addition for $[U(1)]{2N}$ Chern-Simons theory on $AdS_3$, we show that it is possible to find boundary counter terms which lead to the $N$ conserved currents in the dual two-dimensional CFT.
