Abstract

We study the AdS5/CFT4 duality where the boundary CFT is free Yang-Mills theory with gauge group SU(N). At the planar level we use the spectrum and correlation functions of the boundary theory to explicate features of the bulk theory. Further, by computing the one-loop partition function of the bulk theory using the methods of arXiv:1603.05387, we argue that the bulk coupling constant should be shifted to N2 from N2 − 1. Similar conclusions are reached by studying the dualities in thermal AdS5 with S1 × S3 boundary.
