Description
In recent years there has been a growing interest in various non-Lorentzian limits of String and M-theory. In this talk I will outline my work with Joe Smith on novel non-Lorentzian field theories obtained from limits of branes. The dynamics of these theories typically reduce to motion on a moduli space. We also discuss the limits of their associated gravitational solutions which lead to new examples of gauge/gravity duality which go beyond traditional supergravity.
