Penrose Limit and String Theories on Various Brane Backgrounds
We investigate the Penrose limit of various brane solutions including Dp-branes, NS5-branes, fundamental strings, (p, q) fivebranes and (p, q) strings. We obtain special null geodesics with the fixed radial coordinate (critical radius), along which the Penrose limit gives string theories with constant mass. We also study string theories with time-dependent mass, which arise from the Penrose lim...
متن کاملString/Gauge Duality and Penrose Limit
Berenstein, Maldacena, and Nastase have recently discovered a particular limit of AdS/CFT correspondence where string theory in a plane wave background is dual to a sector of N = 4 SYM in a double scaling limit. It is based on the observation that a plane wave background can be obtained by taking Penrose limit of Anti de Sitter background. The corresponding gauge theory limit is identified via ...
متن کاملPenrose limit and DLCQ of string theory
We argue that the Penrose limit of a general string background is a generalization of the Seiberg-Sen limit describing M(atrix) theory as the DLCQ of M theory in flat space. The BMN theory of type IIB strings on the maximally supersymmetric pp-wave background is understood as the exact analogue of the BFSS M(atrix) theory, namely, a DLCQ of IIB string theory on AdS5 × S in the limit of infinite...
متن کاملString amplitudes and the Penrose limit
We consider string amplitudes in curved backgrounds. We show that, chosen a null geodesic in the background and an adapted coordinate system, generic string amplitudes in the regime in which the momentum along the geodesic is much larger than the background curvature scale admit an effective description, in terms of the same σ-model setting, on the Penrose limit of the original background if th...
متن کاملPenrose Limit and Six - Dimensional Gauge Theories
We study the Penrose limit of the (p, q) fivebranes supergravity background. We consider the different phases of the worldvolume field theory and their weakly coupled descriptions. In the Penrose limit we get a solvable string theory and compute the spectrum. It corresponds to states of the six-dimensional worldvolume theory with large energy and large U(1) charge. We comment on the RG behavior...
