Spin-2 operators from metric fluctuations in the AdS/CFT
This is a computational question. I am pretty sure that there is a simple explanation, and something obvious that I am missing but I cannot figure it out.
I want to add that this is not meant to be a &...

Supergravity solution, metric for the total space, and connection
In supergravity solutions, one sometimes encounters the case where the manifold may be a bundle over some base space, and one has to write down the explicit metric regarding such bundle. I would like ...
