Abstract:
We suggest a model of the large N limit N=4{\cal N}=4 D=4 SU(N) SYM as a gas of 3-branes in a 10 dimensional space. Field theory analysis suggests that this 10 dimensional space does not carry the usual gravity dynamics but rather a contraction of it. Using a non-local transformation some aspects of the dynamics of this system are mapped to the dynamics of standard gravitons on AdS5×S5AdS_5\times S^5. In particular some of the correspondence between operator in the CFT and states on AdSAdS is more transparent.
