Giant Gravitons and a Correspondence Principle
We propose a correspondence between the physics of certain small charge black holes in AdSk × Sl and large charge black holes in AdSl × Sk. The curvature singularities of these solutions arise, following Myers and Tafjord, from a condensate of giant gravitons. When the number of condensed giants Ng is much greater than the number of background branes N , we propose that the system has an equiva...
متن کاملNon-Abelian Giant Gravitons
We argue that the giant graviton configurations known from the literature have a complementary, microscopical description in terms of multiple gravitational waves undergoing a dielectric (or magnetic moment) effect. We present a non-Abelian effective action for these gravitational waves with dielectric couplings and show that stable dielectric solutions exist. These solutions agree in the large...
متن کاملGiant Hedge-Hogs: Spikes on Giant Gravitons
We consider giant gravitons on the maximally supersymmetric plane-wave background of type IIB string theory. Fixing the light-cone gauge, we deduce the low energy effective light-cone Hamiltonian of the three-sphere giant graviton. At first order, this is a U(1) gauge theory on R × S. We place sources in this effective gauge theory. Although nonvanishing net electric charge configurations are d...
متن کاملA Microscopical Description of Giant Gravitons
We construct a non-Abelian world volume effective action for a system of multiple M-theory gravitons. This action contains multipole moment couplings to the eleven-dimensional background potentials. We use these couplings to study, from the microscopical point of view, giant graviton configurations where the gravitons expand into an M2-brane, with the topology of a fuzzy 2-sphere, that lives in...
متن کاملCounting Giant Gravitons in AdS3
We quantize the set of all quarter BPS brane probe solutions in global AdS3 × S × T /K3 found in [1]. We show that, generically, these solutions give rise to states in discrete representations of the SL(2, R) WZW model on AdS3. Our procedure provides us with a detailed description of the low energy 1 4 and 1 2 BPS sectors of string theory on this background. The 1 4 BPS partition function jumps...
