Title: Self-dual holography
In flat space, self-dual theories are powerful toy models for studying their parent theories. Here we develop an AdS/CFT framework for such self-dual theories. We discuss the holographic relation between chiral higher-spin gravity and Chern-Simons vector models. As an example, we study the relation between Yang-Mills and self-dual Yang-Mills in AdS. For mixed boundary conditions, explicit three- and four-point correlation functions in Yang-Mills are presented in several gauges, and we show how the self-dual limit emerges.
