Description

Employing the RG flow equations for weakly coupled quantum field theories in AdS, I show how one can apply the AdS/CFT correspondence to obtain flow equations for the dual CFTs. In this duality, loop corrections in the AdS bulk are mapped to 1/N corrections in the CFT. I derive recursion relations for CFT correlation functions which generalize existing results in the large-N limit to all orders in the 1/N expansion, and show how these translate directly into recursion relations for the corresponding Mellin amplitudes.
