Kinky Strings in AdS_5 x S^5
Tristan McLoughlin, Xinkai Wu
We construct a family of closed string solutions with kinks in a subspace of AdS_5 x S^5 and study their properties. In certain limits these solutions become folded pulsating strin…
Dynamics of Antimembranes in the Maximally Supersymmetric Eleven-Dimensional pp Wave
Jeremy Michelson, Xinkai Wu
We study a spherical antimembrane in the eleven dimensional pp wave. In this background, a single antimembrane breaks all the supersymmetries because its dipole is misaligned with…
Gauge/Gravity Duality for Interactions of Spherical Membranes in 11-dimensional pp-wave
Hok Kong Lee, Tristan McLoughlin, Xinkai Wu
We investigate the gauge/gravity duality in the interaction between two spherical membranes in the 11-dimensional pp-wave background. On the supergravity side, we find the solution…
Two-Graviton Interaction in PP-Wave Background in Matrix Theory and Supergravity
Hok Kong Lee, Xinkai Wu
We compute the two-body one-loop effective action for the matrix theory in the pp-wave background, and compare it to the effective action on the supergravity side in the same backg…
