Towards a Worldsheet Derivation of the Maldacena Conjecture
read the original abstract
A U(2,2|4)-invariant A-model constructed from fermionic superfields has recently been proposed as a sigma model for the superstring on AdS_5xS^5. After explaining the relation of this A-model with the pure spinor formalism, the A-model action is expressed as a gauged linear sigma model. In the zero radius limit, the Coulomb branch of this sigma model is interpreted as D-brane holes which are related to gauge-invariant N=4 d=4 super-Yang-Mills operators. As in the worldsheet derivation of open-closed duality for Chern-Simons theory, this construction may lead to a worldsheet derivation of the Maldacena conjecture. Intriguing connections to the twistorial formulation of N=4 Yang-Mills are also noted.

D-branes and nonlinear interactions in the $AdS$ pure spinor string
Zero-field half-BPS D-branes in the AdS5×S5 pure spinor string are organized by involutions exchanging the odd Z4 grades, and boundary BRST invariance gives DBI-like consistency equations.
