AdS/CFT Correspondence in Operator Formalism (1710.07298v2)

Abstract: In this paper we study the AdS/CFT correspondence in the operator formalism without assuming the GKPW relation. We explicitly show that the low energy spectrum of the large N limit of CFT, which is realized by a strong coupling gauge theory, is identical to the spectrum of the free gravitational theory in the global AdS spacetime under some assumptions which are expected to be valid. Thus, two theories are equivalent for the low energy region under the assumptions. Using this equivalence, the bulk local field is constructed and the GKPW relation is derived.
