  1. AdS4£CP3 superspace Dmitri Sorokin INFN, Sezione di Padova ArXiv:0811.1566 Jaume Gomis, Linus Wulff and D.S. ArXiv:0903.5407 P.A.Grassi, L.Wulff and D.S. SQS’09, Dubna, 30 July 2009

  2. AdS4/CFT3correspondence • Holographic duality between 3d supersymmetric Chern-Simons-matter theories (BLG & ABJM) with SU(N)xSU(N) and M/String Theory compactified on AdS4 space • In a certain limit the bulk dual description of the ABJM model is given by type IIA string theory on AdS4£ CP3 • this D=10 background preserves 24 of 32 susy, i.e. N=6 from the AdS4 perspective, and its isometry is OSp(6|4) • To study this AdS/CFT duality, it is necessary to know an explicit form of the Green-Schwarz string action in the AdS4£ CP3superbackground.

  3. Our goal is to get the explicit form ofB2 ,EAand E as polynomials of for the AdS4£ CP3 case Green-Schwarz superstring in a generic supergravity background Type IIA sugra fieldsgMN, , BMN, AM, ALMN, M, are contained inEAandB2

  4. Fermionic kappa-symmetry Provided that the superbackground satisfies superfield supergravity constraints (or, equivalently, sugra field equations), the GS superstring action is invariant under the following local worldsheet transformations of the string coordinates ZM()=(XM, ): Due to the projector, the fermionic parameter () has only 16 independent components. They can be used to gauge away 1/2 of 32 fermionic worldsheet fields ()

E.g., it does not describe a string moving in AdS4 only. only ½ of 8 can be eliminated [(1+), P8 ]=0 OSp(6|4) supercoset sigma model S=s d2 (- det EiAEjBAB)1/2 + s E’ÆE’ J’’ C Reason – kappa-gauge fixing 8 =P8=0is inconsistent in the AdS4 region

CP3 vielbein and U(1) connection em’a’ (y) Am’(y) S7 vielbein: ema= 0 1 F2~dA=JCP3 Towards the construction of the complete AdS4£CP3 superspace (with 32  ) • We shall construct this superspace by performing the dimension reduction of D=11 coset superspace OSp(8|4)/SO(7)£SO(1,3) it has 32  and subspace AdS4£S7, SO(2,3) £ SO(8) ½ OSp(8|4) • AdS4£CP3sugra solutionis related to AdS4£S7(with 32 susy)by dimenisonal reduction (Nilsson and Pope; D.S., Tkach & Volkov 1984) Geometrical ground: S7 is the Hopf fibration over CP3 with S1 fiber: (does not depend on S1 fiber coordinate z) Our goal is to extend this structure toOSp(8|4)/SO(7)£SO(1,3)

  15. Conclusion • The complete AdS4 £CP3 superspace with 32 fermionic directions has been constructed. Its superisometry is OSp(6|4) • The explicit form of the actions for Type IIA superstring and D-branes in AdS4 £CP3 superspace have been derived • A simple gauge-fixed form of the superstring action was obtained • a light-cone gauge fixing of the superstring action has been recently considered by D. Uvarov arXiv:0906.4699 • These results can be used for studying various problems of String Theory in AdS4 £CP3, in particular, to perform higher-loop computations (involving fermionic modes) for testing AdS4 /CFT3 correspondence: integrability, Bethe ansatz, S-matrix etc. in the dual planar N=6 CS-matter theory
