HIGHER SPIN AdS3 SUPERGRAVITY AND ITS CFT DUAL

Abstract

Gravity, itself a gauge theory of a spin 2 field, can be extended to a higher spin gauge theory on AdS spaces. Recently, Gaberdiel and Gopakumar conjectured that a large N limit of a 2d minimal model is dual to a bosonic subsector of a higher spin supergravity theory on 3d AdS space. We propose and test the untruncated supersymmetric version of this conjecture where the dual CFT is a large N limit of the [Formula: see text] CP N Kazama-Suzuki model.
