We show that the maximally supersymmetric pp-waves of IIB superstring and M-theories can be obtained as a Penrose limit of the supersymmetric AdS x S solutions. In addition we find that in a certain large tension limit, the geometry seen by a brane probe in an AdS x S background is either Minkowski space or a maximally supersymmetric pp-wave.

  1. Tree-level S matrix for $\lambda$-deformed AdS3 strings

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    For the λ-deformed AdS3×S3×T4 superstring, the tree-level bosonic worldsheet S matrix is purely elastic for 0≤λ<1, confirming integrability, and ill-defined at λ→1, so that limit does not capture T-dual worldsheet dynamics.

  2. Interpolating families of integrable AdS3 backgrounds

    hep-th 2025-02 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    New TsT-based integrable deformations interpolate between AdS3×S3×S3×S1 and AdS3×S3×S2×T2 or AdS3×S2×S2×T3 while preserving half the supersymmetry.

  3. Conformal Mapping of Non-Lorentzian Geometries in SU(1,2) Conformal Field Theory

    hep-th 2024-11 reject novelty 6.0 of 10

    An explicit conformal mapping is derived between null-reduced R times S^3 and Omega-deformed Minkowski TNC geometries, giving the state-operator generator map H0 = (R^2 H + C/R^2 - J - N)/2 in SU(1,2) non-Lorentzian CFTs.

  4. An Introduction to String Newton-Cartan Holography and Integrability

    hep-th 2026-03 accept novelty 3.0 of 10

    String Newton-Cartan holography, the non-relativistic limit of the AdS/CFT correspondence, is organized and reviewed around five consistency conditions, with its classical solutions, spectrum, and integrability structure.
