Claims

C1strongest claim

Correlation functions in conformal field theory are given by the dependence of the supergravity action on the asymptotic behavior at infinity. In particular, dimensions of operators in conformal field theory are given by masses of particles in supergravity.

C2weakest assumption

That the large-N limit of the boundary conformal field theory is accurately described by classical supergravity (rather than full string theory) on the AdS bulk, with the precise identification of boundary conditions to CFT sources and operators.

C3one line summary

Large-N limits of certain conformal field theories are equivalent to supergravity on AdS space, with CFT correlation functions obtained from the supergravity action evaluated on boundary asymptotics and operator dimensions equal to particle masses.
