We apply our previous work on Green's functions for the four-dimensionalquaternionic Taub-NUT manifold to obtain a scalar two-point function on thehomogeneously squashed three-sphere (otherwise known as the Berger sphere),which lies at its conformal infinity. Using basic notions from conformalgeometry and the theory of boundary value problems, in particular theDirichlet-to-Robin operator, we establish that our two-point correlationfunction is conformally invariant and corresponds to a boundary operator ofconformal dimension one. It is plausible that the methods we use could havemore general applications in an AdS/CFT context.Comment: 1+49 pages, no figures. v2: Several typos correcte
