Explore a 46-minute lecture on holography for higher spin gravity delivered by Robert de Mello Koch from the University of Witwatersrand, South Africa. Begin with a brief review of Maldacena's original argument for holographic duality between IIB string theory on AdS5×S5 and maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. Delve into the duality between the free O(N) vector model in 2+1 dimensions and higher spin gravity on AdS4. Examine the spectrum of single trace primaries in the CFT and its dual spectrum of fields in higher spin gravity. Learn how the gravitational theory can be constructed using bilocal variables and collective field theory formalism. Discover recent phenomena in quantum gravity, including the quantum error correction interpretation of holography, entanglement wedge reconstruction, and the holography of information. Gain insights into advanced concepts in theoretical physics and holography through this Institut Henri Poincaré presentation.
