Holographic three-point functions of semiclassical states. (English) Zbl 1291.81273

Summary: We calculate the holographic three-point functions in \(\mathcal{N} = 4\) super-Yang-Mills theory in the case when two of the operators are semiclassical and one is dual to a supergravity mode. We further discuss the transition to the regime when all three operators are semiclassical.
