Holography in superspace

The AdS/CFT correspondence identifies the coordinates of the conformal boun dary of anti-de Sitter space with the coordinates of the conformal field th eory. We generalize this identification to theories formulated in superspac e. As an application of our results, we study a class of Wilson loops in N = 4 super-Yang-Mills theory. A gauge theory computation shows that the expe ctation values of these loops are invariant under a local k-symmetry, excep t at intersections. We identify this with the k-invariance of the associate d string worldsheets in the corresponding bulk superspace.
