Abstract: (Elsevier)
We propose that general D -dimensional quantum field theories are dual to ( D + 1 ) -dimensional local quantum theories which in general include objects with spin two or higher. Using a general prescription, we construct a ( D + 1 ) -dimensional theory which is holographically dual to the D -dimensional O ( N ) vector model. From the holographic theory, the phase transition and critical properties of the model in dimensions D > 2 are described.
