General Lin-Maldacena solutions and PWMM Instantons from supergravity

arXiv:hep-th/0701277 · doi:10.1088/1126-6708/2007/03/028

Abstract

We use the Lin-Maldacena prescription to demonstrate how to find the supergravity solutions dual to arbitrary vacua of the plane wave matrix model and maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on RxS^2, by solving the auxiliary electrostatics problem. We then apply the technique to study instantons at strong coupling in the matrix model.
