abstract

We construct various examples of 1/4-BPS giant gravitons embedded into the type IIB supergravity background $AdS_{3} \times S^{3}_{+} \times S^{3}_{-} \times S^{1}$ with pure R-R flux: two D1-brane giants wrapping 1-cycles in $AdS_{3}$ and $S^{3}_{+} \times S^{3}_{-}$, and one D5-brane giant wrapping a 4-cycle in $S^{3}_{+} \times S^{3}_{-}$ and the $S^{1}$. These D-branes are supported by angular momenta $\alpha$ P on one 3-sphere and $(1-\alpha)$ P on the other. We then construct a general class of 1/8-BPS D5-brane giant gravitons wrapping 4-cycles $\Sigma$ in $S^{3}_{+} \times S^{3}_{-}$ and the $S^{1}$. Here $\Sigma$ is the intersection of a holomorphic surface $\mathcal{C}$ in $\mathbb{C}^{2}_{+} \times \mathbb{C}^{2}_{-}$ with the $S^{3}_{+} \times S^{3}_{-}$ submanifold. The holomorphic surface $\mathcal{C}$ is defined by $f(y_{1}z_{1},y_{1}z_{2},y_{2}z_{1},y_{2}z_{2}) = 0$, with $y_{a}$ and $z_{a}$ the $\mathbb{C}^{2}_{\pm}$ complex coordinates. There is supersymmetry enhancement to 1/4-BPS in the special case $f(y_{1}z_{1}) = 0$ of which our original D5-brane giant graviton is an example.

    Near-extremal AdS3 x S3 black holes are thermodynamically and dynamically unstable, decaying to a central black hole plus chiral primaries or new macroscopic giant strings.
