AdS/CFT and BPS Strings in Four Dimensions
arXiv:hep-th/9907206 · doi:10.1016/S0370-2693(99)01034-5
Abstract
We consider N=2 superconformal theories defined on a 3+1 dimensional hyperplane intersection of two sets of M5 branes. These theories have (tensionless) BPS string solitons. We use a dual supergravity formulation to deduce some of their properties via the AdS/CFT correspondence.
