Recurrence Relations for Finite-Temperature Correlators via AdS2_{2}/CFT1_{1}

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

This note is aimed at presenting a new algebraic approach to momentum-space correlators in conformal field theory. As an illustration we present a new Lie-algebraic method to compute frequency-space two-point functions for charged scalar operators of CFT1_{1} dual to AdS2_{2} black hole with constant background electric field. Our method is based on the real-time prescription of AdS/CFT correspondence, Euclideanization of AdS2_{2} black hole and projective unitary representations of the Lie algebra sl(2,R)⊕sl(2,R)\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R}) \oplus \mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R}). We derive novel recurrence relations for Euclidean CFT1_{1} two-point functions, which are exactly solvable and completely determine the frequency- and charge-dependences of two-point functions. Wick-rotating back to Lorentzian signature, we obtain retarded and advanced CFT1_{1} two-point functions that are consistent with the known results.
