Schr\"odinger geometries arising from Yang-Baxter deformations

We present further examples of the correspondence between solutions of type IIB supergravity and classical $r$-matrices satisfying the classical Yang-Baxter equation (CYBE). In the previous works, classical $r$-matrices have been composed of generators of only one of either $\mathfrak{so}(2,4)$ or $\mathfrak{so}(6)$. In this paper, we consider some examples of $r$-matrices with both of them. The $r$-matrices of this kind contain (generalized) Schr\"odinger spacetimes and gravity duals of dipole theories. It is known that the generalized Schr\"odinger spacetimes can also be obtained via a certain class of TsT transformations called null Melvin twists. The metric and NS-NS two-form are reproduced by following the Yang-Baxter sigma-model description.Comment: 25 pages, LaTeX, no figure, v2: references and minor clarifications adde

Yang-Baxter deformations and string dualities

We further study integrable deformations of the AdS$_5\times$S$^5$ superstring by following the Yang-Baxter sigma model approach with classical $r$-matrices satisfying the classical Yang-Baxter equation (CYBE). Deformed string backgrounds specified by $r$-matrices are considered as solutions of type IIB supergravity, and therefore the relation between gravitational solutions and $r$-matrices may be called the gravity/CYBE correspondence. In this paper, we present a family of string backgrounds associated with a classical $r$-matrices carrying two parameters and its three-parameter generalization. The two-parameter case leads to the metric and NS-NS two-form of a solution found by Hubeny-Rangamani-Ross [hep-th/0504034] and another solution in [arXiv:1402.6147]. For all of the backgrounds associated with the three-parameter case, the metric and NS-NS two-form are reproduced by performing TsT transformations and S-dualities for the undeformed AdS$_5\times$S$^5$ background. As a result, one can anticipate the R-R sector that should be reproduced via a supercoset construction.Comment: 23 pages, 1 tabl

Integrability of classical strings dual for noncommutative gauge theories

We derive the gravity duals of noncommutative gauge theories from the Yang-Baxter sigma model description of the AdS_5xS^5 superstring with classical r-matrices. The corresponding classical r-matrices are 1) solutions of the classical Yang-Baxter equation (CYBE), 2) skew-symmetric, 3) nilpotent and 4) abelian. Hence these should be called abelian Jordanian deformations. As a result, the gravity duals are shown to be integrable deformations of AdS_5xS^5. Then, abelian twists of AdS_5 are also investigated. These results provide a support for the gravity/CYBE correspondence proposed in arXiv:1404.1838.Comment: 16 pages, no figure, LaTe

Yang-Baxter sigma models based on the CYBE

It is known that Yang-Baxter sigma models provide a systematic way to study integrable deformations of both principal chiral models and symmetric coset sigma models. In the original proposal and its subsequent development, the deformations have been characterized by classical $r$-matrices satisfying the modified classical Yang-Baxter equation (mCYBE). In this article, we propose the Yang-Baxter sigma models based on the classical Yang-Baxter equations (CYBE) rather than the mCYBE. This generalization enables us to utilize various kinds of solutions of the CYBE to classify integrable deformations. In particular, it is straightforward to realize partial deformations of the target space without loss of the integrability of the parent theory.Comment: 23 pages; v2: a reference added, small modifications; v3: minor correction

A Jordanian deformation of AdS space in type IIB supergravity

We consider a Jordanian deformation of the AdS_5xS^5 superstring action by taking a simple R-operator which satisfies the classical Yang-Baxter equation. The metric and NS-NS two-form are explicitly derived with a coordinate system. Only the AdS part is deformed and the resulting geometry contains the 3D Schrodinger spacetime as a subspace. Then we present the full solution in type IIB supergravity by determining the other field components. In particular, the dilaton is constant and a R-R three-form field strength is turned on. The symmetry of the solution is [SL(2,R)xU(1)^2] x [SU(3)xU(1)] and contains an anisotropic scale symmetry.Comment: 29 pages, no figure, LaTeX, typos corrected, references added, further clarification adde

Jordanian deformations of the AdS_5xS^5 superstring

We consider Jordanian deformations of the AdS_5xS^5 superstring action. The deformations correspond to non-standard q-deformation. In particular, it is possible to perform partial deformations, for example, only for the S^5 part. Then the classical action and the Lax pair are constructed with a linear, twisted and extended R operator. It is shown that the action preserves the kappa-symmetry.Comment: 22 pages, no figure, LaTeX, typos corrected and further clarification adde

Deformations of T1,1T^{1,1} as Yang-Baxter sigma models

We consider a family of deformations of T^{1,1} in the Yang-Baxter sigma model approach. We first discuss a supercoset description of T^{1,1}, which makes manifest the full symmetry of the space and leads to the standard Sasaki-Einstein metric. Next, we consider three-parameter deformations of T^{1,1} by using classical r-matrices satisfying the classical Yang-Baxter equation (CYBE). The resulting metric and NS-NS two-form agree exactly with the ones obtained via TsT transformations, and contain the Lunin-Maldacena background as a special case. It is worth noting that for AdS_5 x T^{1,1}, classical integrability for the full sector has been argued to be lost. Hence our result indicates that the Yang-Baxter sigma model approach is applicable even for non-integrable cosets. This observation suggests that the gravity/CYBE correspondence can be extended beyond integrable cases.Comment: 21 pages, no figure, LaTeX, v2:clarifications and references added, v3:minor corrections, further clarifications adde
