Coupling of Higher Spin Gauge Fields to a Scalar Field in $AdS_{d+1}$ and their Holographic Images in the $d$-Dimensional Sigma Model

The three-point functions of two scalar fields $σ$ and the higher spin field $h^{(\ell)}$ of HS(4) on the one side and of their proposed holographic images $α$ and $\mathcal{J^{(\ell)}}$ of the minimal conformal O(N) sigma model of dimension three on the other side are evaluated at leading perturbative order and compared in order to fix the coupling constant of HS(4). This necessitates a careful analysis of the local current $Ψ^{(\ell)}$ to which $h^{(\ell)}$ couples in HS(4) and which is bilinear in $σ$.

On the proposed AdS dual of the critical O(N) sigma model for any dimension 2<d<4

We evaluate the 4-point function of the auxiliary field in the critical O(N) sigma model at O(1/N) and show that it describes the exchange of tensor currents of arbitrary even rank l>0. These are dual to tensor gauge fields of the same rank in the AdS theory, which supports the recent hypothesis of Klebanov and Polyakov. Their couplings to two auxiliary fields are also derived.

Composite fields, generalized hypergeometric functions and the $U(1)_Y$ symmetry in the AdS/CFT correspondence

We discuss the concept of composite fields in flat CFT as well as in the context of AdS/CFT. Furthermore we show how to represent Green functions using generalized hypergeometric functions and apply these techniques to four-point functions. Finally we prove an identity of $U(1)_Y$ symmetry for four-point functions.
