Abstract We give an interpretation of the holographic correspondence between two-dimensional BF theory on the punctured disk with gauge group PSL(2, ℝ) and Schwarzian quantum mechanics in terms of a Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction. The latter, in turn, is equivalent to the presence of certain edge states imposing a first class constraint on the model. The constrained path integral localizes over exceptional Virasoro coadjoint orbits. The reduced theory is governed by the Schwarzian action functional generating a Hamiltonian S1-action on the orbits. The partition function is given by a sum over topological sectors (corresponding to the exceptional orbits), each of which is computed by a formal Duistermaat-Heckman integral.

The Kahler geometry of minimal coadjoint orbits of classical Lie groups is exploited to construct Darboux coordinates, a symplectic two-form and a Lie–Poisson structure on the dual of the Lie algebra. Canonical transformations cast the generators of the dual into Dyson or Holstein–Primakoff representations.PACS Nos.: 02.20.Sv, 02.30.Ik, 02.40.Tt
