Proving the PP-Wave/CFT_2 Duality
Edi Gava, K. S. Narain
We study the duality between IIB string theory on a pp-wave background, arising as a Penrose limit of the AdS_3 times S^3 times M, where M is T^4 (or K3), and the 2D CFT which is g…

Open Strings on Plane waves and their Yang-Mills duals
D. Berenstein, E. Gava, J. Maldacena +2
We study the plane wave limit of which arises as the near horizon geometry of D3-branes at an orientifold 7-plane in type I' theory. We analyze string theory…

D1D5 systems and AdS/CFT correspondences with 16 supercharges
Edi Gava, Amine B. Hammou, Jose F. Morales +1
We study the spectra of BPS excitations of D1D5 bound states in a class of free orbifolds/orientifolds of type IIB theory and its dual descriptions in terms of chiral primaries of…
