Description
It is well-known that non-relativistic limits of a string theory modify its background geometry, which no longer remains Lorentzian. This opens a new window into non-AdS holography, for instance by taking a non-relativistic limit of the most studied and understood case, namely strings in AdS5xS5. Although its non-relativistic dual field theory has not been identified yet, in this talk we shall focus on the string side of the correspondence. We report on recent progress in non-relativistic strings in AdS5xS5, namely on classical solutions, semiclassical expansion and a Lax pair.
