Marginal deformations of N=4 SYM and Penrose limits with continuum spectrum
نویسنده
چکیده
We study the Penrose limit about a null geodesic with 3 equal angular momenta in the recently obtained type IIB solution dual to an exactly marginal γ-deformation of N = 4 SYM. The resulting background has non-trivial NS 3-form flux as well as RR 5and 3-form fluxes. We quantise the light-cone Green-Schwarz action and show that it exhibits a continuum spectrum. We show that this is related to the dynamics of a charged particle moving in a Landau plane with an extra interaction induced by the deformation. We interpret the results in the dual N = 1 SCFT.

AdS 5 × S 5 and higher spin holography
We derive the spectrum of Kaluza-Klein descendants of string excitations on AdS5 × S5. String states are organized in long multiplets of the AdS supergroup SU(2, 2|4) with a rich pattern of shortenings at the higher spin enhancement point λ = 0. The string states holographically dual to the higher spin currents of SYM theory in the strict zero coupling limit are identified together with the cor...

متن کاملPP - waves and softly broken N = 1 SYM 2 2 .
We review the Penrose limit of the Type IIB dual of softly broken N=1 SYM in four dimensions obtained as a deformation of the Maldacena-N` uñez background. We extract the string spectrum on the resulting pp-wave background and discuss some properties of the conjectured dual gauge theory hadrons, the so called " Annulons " .
متن کاملPP-waves from rotating and continuously distributed D3-branes
We study families of PP-wave solutions of type-IIB supergravity that have (light-cone) time dependent metrics and RR five-form fluxes. They arise as Penrose limits of supergravity solutions that correspond to rotating or continuous distributions of D3-branes. In general, the solutions preserve sixteen supersymmetries. On the dual field theory side these backgrounds describe the BMN limit of N =...
متن کاملMarginal Deformations of N = 4 SYM and Open vs . Closed String Parameters
We construct the gravity dual to the generic Leigh–Strassler deformation of N = 4 SYM as well as the correponding deformed flat space geometry up to third order in the deformation parameter ρ. We achieve this by first determining the set of open string parameters (G, Θ) encoding the deformation of the moduli space and then mapping them to the closed string ones (g, B). Our method is thus almost...
