Baulieu, Laurent (ed.) et al., Progress in string theory and M-theory. Papers of the Cargèse summer school, Cargèse, France, May 24 – June 5, 1999. Dordrecht: Kluwer Academic Publishers (ISBN 0-7923-7033-3/hbk). NATO ASI Ser., Ser. C, Math. Phys. Sci. 564, 405-408 (2001).
Summary: The author et al. summarizes the results of [J. High Energy Phys. 1999, No. 11, Paper 13 (1999), [hep-th/9905211], where they considered M/string theory on noncompact, negatively curved, co-sets that generalize Anti-de Sitter space, and proposed holographic descriptions in terms of a conformal field theory on the boundary. Qualitatively new features arise due to the degenerate nature of the conformal boundary metric.
