Double-trace deformations of conformal correlations

Abstract Large N conformal field theories often admit unitary renormalization group flows triggered by double-trace deformations. We compute the change in scalar four-point functions under double-trace flow, to leading order in 1/N. This has a simple dual in AdS, where the flow is implemented by a c...
