|    Gravitation viz the CFT boundary?    |
|    30 Mar 18 07:01:31    |
      From: stargene@sbcglobal.net              I understand that at least within the AdS/CFT dualities, exactly all of the       information,       characterizing the (N)-dimensional AdS bulk, maps into all of the information       on       the (N-1)-dimensional CFT ‘surface’. And that quantum field theory lives       on that       CFT boundary. But this boundary also contains no gravitation, which lives only       in the AdS bulk. [And presumably, in some future de Sitter/CFT theory, the       same       thing would be true.]              But since all of the gravitational physics in the bulk must constitute some of       the       total bulk information, how can gravitation itself map onto the gravity-less       CFT?       Ie: What precisely does the bulk’s gravitation “hang it’s hat on” in       the CFT       surface?       (This confuse Tarzan)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
