Yang-Mills interaction from boundary vector model
Abstract
We construct a non-abelian spin 1 gauge theory with a cubic interaction in AdS4 from the Exact Renormalisation Group (ERG) flow of a CFT in 3 dimensions. The latter is the USp(2N) singlet sector of the free field theory of 2N massless complex scalars. The quadratic and cubic terms in the bulk action are those of a gauge fixed version of a (local) gauge invariant action. By construction this bulk action is the evolution operator for the ERG equation of the boundary theory and thus is guaranteed to reproduce the correct boundary correlators using the usual AdS/CFT prescription. This work expands on the programme first set out in arXiv:1706.03371.
