Abstract
We develop a systematic framework to compute the conformal partial wave
expansions (CPWEs) of tree-level four-point Witten diagrams with totally
symmetric external fields of arbitrary mass and integer spin in AdS\$\_d+1\$.
Employing this framework, we determine the CPWE of a generic exchange Witten
diagram with spinning exchanged field. As an intermediate step, we diagonalise
the linear map between spinning three-point conformal structures and spinning
cubic couplings in AdS. As a concrete application, we compute all exchange
diagrams in the type A higher-spin gauge theory on AdS\$\_d+1\$, which is
conjectured to be dual to the free scalar \$Ołeft(N\right)\$ model. Given a
CFT\$\_d\$, our results provide the complete holographic reconstruction of all
cubic couplings involving totally symmetric fields in the putative dual theory
on AdS\$\_d+1\$.
