Description

Light-cone formulation of conformal field theory in space-time of arbitrary dimension is developed. Conformal fundamental and shadow fields with arbitrary conformal dimension and arbitrary spin are studied. Representation of conformal algebra generators on space of conformal fundamental and shadow fields in terms of spin operators which enter in light-cone gauge formulation of field dynamics in AdS space is found. As an example of application of light-cone formalism we discuss AdS/CFT correspondence for massive arbitrary spin AdS fields and corresponding boundary CFT fields at the level of two point function.
