Near-extremal correlators and generalized consistent truncation for AdS4|7 × S7|4
Abstract
We present conjectures for the space-time form and leading large-N dependence of extremal and near-extremal correlation functions in the Script N = 8 superconformal Yang-Mills theory in d = 3 as well as in the (0,2) superconformal theory in d = 6, using their gravity duals with M-theory on AdS4 × S7 and AdS7 × S4 respectively. As a key part of the conjectures, we argue that the bulk couplings associated with extremal and near-extremal field configurations in the corresponding AdS4 and AdS7 gauged supergravities vanish. The vanishing of these couplings constitutes a generalization of the property of consistent truncation of the Kaluza-Klein modes.
