Generalized Conformal Symmetry and Oblique AdS/CFT Correspondence for Matrix Theory

TL;DR

This paper explores a generalized conformal symmetry in Matrix theory and introduces an 'oblique' AdS/CFT correspondence involving both spacetime and coupling constants, with implications for the Matrix-theory conjecture.

Contribution

It proposes a new 'oblique' AdS/CFT correspondence framework that incorporates string coupling into conformal symmetry, extending previous holographic dualities.

Explicit predictions for two-point correlators

Implications for Matrix-theory conjecture

Extension of conformal symmetry concepts

Abstract

The large N behavior of Matrix theory is discussed on the basis of the previously proposed generalized conformal symmetry. The concept of `oblique' AdS/CFT correspondence, in which the conformal symmetry involves both the space-time coordinates and the string coupling constant, is proposed. Based on the explicit predictions for two-point correlators, possible implications for the Matrix-theory conjecture are discussed.
