What is Loops in AdS: From the Spectral Representation to Position Space about?

We compute a family of scalar loop diagrams in $AdS$. We use the spectral representation to derive various bulk vertex/propagator identities, and these identities enable to reduce certain loop bubble diagrams to lower loop diagrams, and often to tree-level exchange or contact diagrams. An important example is the computation of the finite coupling 4-point function of the large-$N$ conformal $O(N)$ model on $AdS_3$. Remarkably, the re-summation of bubble diagrams is equal to a tree-level contact diagram: the $\bar{D}_{1,1,\frac{3}{2},\frac{3}{2}} (z,\bar z)$ function. Another example is a scalar with $\phi^4$ or $\phi^3$ coupling in $AdS_3$: we compute various 4-point (and higher point) loop bubble diagrams with alternating integer and half-integer scaling dimensions in terms of a finite sum of contact diagrams and tree-level exchange diagrams. The 4-point function with external scaling dimensions differences obeying $\Delta_{12}=0$ and $\Delta_{34}=1$ enjoys significant simplicity which enables us to compute in quite generality. For integer or half-integer scaling dimensions, we show that the $M$-loop bubble diagram can be written in terms of Lerch transcendent functions of the cro
