Holographic correlators with multi-particle states

We derive the connected tree-level part of 4-point holographic correlators in AdS3 × S3 × M (where M is T4 or K3) involving two multi-trace and two single-trace operators. These connected correlators are obtained by studying a heavy-heavy-light-light correlation function in the formal limit where the heavy operators become light. These results provide a window into higher-point holographic correlators of single-particle operators. We find that the correlators involving multi-trace operators are compactly written in terms of Bloch-Wigner-Ramakrishnan functions — particular linear combinations of higher-order polylogarithm functions. Several consistency checks of the derived expressions are performed in various OPE channels. We also extract the anomalous dimensions and 3-point couplings of the non-BPS double-trace operators of lowest twist at order 1/c and find some positive anomalous dimensions at spin zero and two in the K3 case

The Regge limit of AdS<inf>3</inf> holographic correlators

We study the Regge limit of 4-point AdS3× S3 correlators in the tree-level supergravity approximation and provide various explicit checks of the relation between the eikonal phase derived in the bulk picture and the anomalous dimensions of certain double-trace operators. We consider both correlators involving all light operators and HHLL correlators with two light and two heavy multi-particle states. These heavy operators have a conformal dimension proportional to the central charge and are pure states of the theory, dual to asymptotically AdS3× S3 regular geometries. Deviation from AdS3× S3 is parametrised by a scale μ and is related to the conformal dimension of the dual heavy operator. In the HHLL case, we work at leading order in μ and derive the CFT data relevant to the bootstrap relations in the Regge limit. Specifically, we show that the minimal solution to these equations relevant for the conical defect geometries is different to the solution implied by the microstate geometries dual to pure states
