A bstract We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a Conformal Field Theory to have a description in terms of a perturbative Effective Field Theory in AdS. The first two conditions are well-known: the existence of a perturbative ‘1/ N ’ expansion and an approximate Fock space of states gen...
