According to the holographic principle all information in the bulk of a space is coded at its border. We will check this statement in three situations involving the AdS/CFT correspondence. There is a well known equivalence between the Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory and the self-dual model in 3 dimensions when the parameters of both theories are related in a given way. We will show that when this relation holds the corresponding CFT's at the border are the same. Then we will study scalar fields. There are two quantum theories for the scalar field in AdS space. The usual prescription of the AdS/CFT correspondence which takes Dirichlet boundary conditions at the border corresponds to one of the quantum theories. We will show that changing boundary conditions will allow us to get the other quantum theory. Finally we consider an Abelian gauge theory in AdS. We will show that the corresponding CFT is independent of the gauge choice and that the gauge dependence stays only in the contact terms at the border.
