The semiclassical limit of W_N CFTs and Vasiliev theory
Eric Perlmutter, Tomas Prochazka, Joris Raeymaekers
We propose a refinement of the Gaberdiel-Gopakumar duality conjecture between W_N conformal field theories and 2+1-dimensional higher spin gravity. We make an identification of gen…
Probing higher spin black holes
Per Kraus, Eric Perlmutter
We study the propagation of scalar fields on various backgrounds in three dimensional higher spin gravity. Our main emphasis is on obtaining the bulk-boundary propagator, which can…
Black holes in three dimensional higher spin gravity: A review
Martin Ammon, Michael Gutperle, Per Kraus +1
We review recent progress in the construction of black holes in three dimensional higher spin gravity theories. Starting from spin-3 gravity and working our way toward the theory o…
Hyperscaling violation from supergravity
Eric Perlmutter
In recent applications of AdS/CFT to condensed matter physics, a metric that transforms covariantly under dilatation has been argued to signal hyperscaling violation in a dual quan…
