Holographic coulomb branch vevs

Abstract

We compute holographically the vevs of all chiral primary operators for supergravity solutions corresponding to the Coulomb branch of N = 4 SYM and find exact agreement with the corresponding field theory computation. Using the dictionary between 10d geometries and field theory developed to extract these vevs, we propose a gravity dual of a half supersymmetric deformation of N = 4 SYM (on Mink4) by certain irrelevant operators. © SISSA 2006.
