Holographic dual of free field theory

Abstract

We derive a holographic dual description of free quantum field theory in arbitrary dimensions, by reinterpreting the exact renormalization group, to obtain a higher spin gravity theory of the general type which had been proposed and studied as a dual theory. We show that the dual theory reproduces all correlation functions.
