abstract

Recently it was suggested that a graviton in $AdS_5 \times S^5$ with a large momentum along the sphere can blow up into a spherical D-brane in $S^5$. In this paper we show that the same graviton can also blow up into a spherical D-brane in $AdS_5$ with exactly the same quantum numbers (angular momentum and energy). These branes are BPS, preserving 16 of the 32 supersymmetries. We show that there is a BPS {\it classical} solution for SYM on $S^3\times R$ with exactly the same quantum numbers. The solution has non-vanishing Higgs expectation values and hence is dual to the large brane in AdS.

Bootstrapping Giant Graviton Correlators

hep-th · 2026-05-14 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0 · 2 refs

Bootstrap using labelled f-graphs, double-triangle and triangle rules, integrated correlators, and 10D hidden symmetry uniquely fixes three-loop mixed GGOO correlators in N=4 SYM, reproducing known two-loop results and yielding new three-loop terms for the maximal determinant operator.

Moduli Spaces in CFT: Large Charge Operators

hep-th · 2024-06-27 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

CFTs with broken continuous global symmetry on the moduli space require a tower of charged local operators whose scaling dimensions are asymptotically linear in the charge.

(Un)solvable Matrix Models for BPS Correlators

hep-th · 2025-08-27 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Proposes complex matrix models for BPS correlators in N=4 SYM, relating eigenvalue distributions to LLM droplet shapes and enabling computations of one-point functions and three-point correlators via reductions to known models.

Open-Closed-Open Triality Beyond Matrix Models

hep-th · 2026-05-04 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Two open-string descriptions of branes on the resolved conifold are equivalent; integrating out one stack yields an effective potential that reproduces the backreaction and matches giant-graviton actions on the deformed conifold.

Holographic two-point functions of heavy operators revisited

hep-th · 2026-03-30 · conditional · novelty 4.0

Holographic two-point functions of heavy operators are reproduced by adding boundary terms to the D3-brane action and by the Gibbons-Hawking-York term in LLM backgrounds, but only in coordinate dependence and without normalization.
