On the boundary gauge dual of closed tensionless free strings in AdS
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider closed free tensionless strings in AdSd, calculate exactly the boundary/boundary string evolution kernel and find the string dynamics to be completely frozen. We interpret therefore the boundary configurations as Wilson loop operators in a confining phase. This is taken as an argument in favor to the dual weakly coupled abelian gauge theory being that of (d− 4)-forms in the (d− 1) dimensional boundary Minkowski space.

On the covariant quantization of tensionless bosonic strings in AdS spacetime
The covariant quantization of the tensionless free bosonic (open and closed) strings in AdS spaces is obtained. This is done by representing the AdS space as an hyperboloid in a flat auxiliary space and by studying the resulting string constrained hamiltonian system in the tensionless limit. It turns out that the constraint algebra simplifies in the tensionless case in such a way that the close...
متن کاملStrings, boundary fermions and coincident D-branes
The appearance in string theory of higher-dimensional objects known as Dbranes has been a source of much of the interesting developements in the subject during the past ten years. A very interesting phenomenon occurs when several of these D-branes are made to coincide: The abelian gauge theory living on each brane is enhanced to a non-abelian gauge theory living on the stack of coincident brane...
متن کاملThe Holographic Dual of a SUSY Vector Model and Tensionless Open Strings
We describe a supersymmetric example of the holographic duality between 3 dimensional vector models and higher spin gauge theories in AdS4, first proposed in a bosonic context by Klebanov and Polyakov. We argue that a particular Fradkin-Vasiliev type supersymmetric higher spin gauge theory in AdS4 with 16 supersymmetries is dual to the singlet sector of bilinear operators of a free N = 4, SU(N)...
متن کاملBaryon vertices in AdS black hole backgrounds
Although string theory was originally constructed for the purpose of describing the behavior of quarks in hadrons, it has been developed for long time independently of hadron physics as a possible form for a theory unifying gravity and other interactions, because it can be formulated only in 10 or 26 spacetime dimensions, and spin 2 massless particles arise naturally. The scale of the fundament...
متن کاملString bits in small radius AdS and weakly coupled N = 4 Super Yang-Mills Theory: I
We study light-cone gauge quantization of IIB strings in AdS5× S for small radius in Poincare coordinates. A picture of strings made up of noninteracting bits emerges in the zero radius limit. In this limit, each bit behaves like a superparticle moving in the AdS5× S background, carrying appropriate representations of the super conformal group PSU(2, 2|4). The standard Hamiltonian operator whic...
