Abstract In this paper we provide a Chern-Simons gravity dual of a two dimensional conformal field theory on a manifold with boundaries, so called boundary conformal field theory (BCFT). We determine the correct boundary action on the end of the world brane in the Chern-Simons gauge theory. This reproduces known results of the AdS/BCFT for the Einstein gravity. We also give a prescription of calculating holographic entanglement entropy by employing Wilson lines which extend from the AdS boundary to the end of the world brane. We also discuss a higher spin extension of our formulation.

Abstract We compute spinning four point functions in the quasi-fermionic three dimensional conformal field theory with slightly broken higher spin symmetry at finite t’Hooft coupling. More concretely, we obtain a formula for $$ \left\langle {j}_s{j}_{\tilde{0}}{j}_{\tilde{0}}{j}_{\tilde{0}}\right\rangle $$ j s j 0 ˜ j 0 ˜ j 0 ˜ , where js is a higher spin current and $$ {j}_{\tilde{0}} $$ j 0 ˜ is the scalar single trace operator. Our procedure consists in writing a plausible ansatz in Mellin space and using crossing, pseudo-conservation and Regge boundedness to fix all undetermined coefficients. Our method can potentially be generalised to compute all spinning four point functions in these theories.

Generators of an infinite number of conserved charges of the integrable SU(2) WZNW model are identified with the generators of a W1+∞ symmetry algebra. This integrable conformal field theory also describes the ZN symmetric Ising model at the critical point in the large-N limit.

In this review we study the elementary structure of Conformal Field Theory in which is a recipe for further studies of critical behavior of various systems in statistical mechanics and quantum field theory. We briefly review CFT in dimensions which plays a prominent role for example in the well-known duality AdS/CFT in string theory where the CFT lives on the AdS boundary. We also describe the mapping of the theory from the cylinder to a complex plane which will help us gain an insight into the process of radial quantization and radial ordering. Finally we will develop the representation of the Virasoro algebra which is the well-known "Verma module".
