2 . Introduction From the AdS/CFT correspondence, the Type IIB string theory with large N D3- branes is believed to be a dual model of the N = 4 supersymmetric gauge theory, and a baryon configuration is realized as a D5-brane wrapped on S 5 in the Type IIB theory [][]. In [3], the D5-brane world volume action is studied and the static solution is analysed. It has a spike, where the tension (the energy per unit radial coordinate distance) is equal to that of N fundamental strings [4]. It is a bound state of N quarks, that is a baryon. Recently a Type 0 string theory has been considered as a dual model of a nonsupersymmetric gauge theory [5]. The Type 0 string theory has two NS-NS and two R-R sectors and is classified into two types of models [6], Type 0A : (NS,NS ) (NS+,NS+) (R+,R ) (R,R+), Type 0B : (NS,NS ) (NS+,NS+) (R+,R+) (R,R ). The signs (±) represent chiralities and the (NS,NS ) sector has tachyon T. But after tachyon condensation, tachyon mass squared is shifted by the five-form field strength. Since there are two R-R sectors, RR fields are two sets, electric and magnetic. In the Type 0B theory, the system with large N electric D3-branes is studied in [7] [8] [9]. The metric is set in a form ds = e φ (e ξ 5η dρ +e ξ ( dt + 3 dx i dx i )+e ξ η dω 5 ). (.) The D3-branes coordinates are (t,x,x,x 3 ). Then the action is represented as S = dρ( φ + ξ + T 4 ) 5 η V(φ,ξ,η,T), i= V(φ,ξ,η,T) = T e φ+ ξ 5η +0e 4η Q f(t) e ξ, (.) f(t) = +T + T. This is a toda like system. The asymptotic solutions in the UV region (ρ e y ) are analysed T = + 8 y + 4 ( ln y (39lny 0)+O y ), y 3 φ = ln( 5 Q ) lny + ( lny ) y 39lny +O, y ξ = ln(q) y + y + y (39lny 04)+O ( ln y y 3 ), η = ln y + y + y (39lny 38)+O ( ln y y 3 ), (.3)
3 where Q is a D3-brane charge. At the UV limit(ρ 0), the metric (.) becomes ds = R UV ( dv v + v R 4 UV ( dt + 3 ) dx i dx i )+dω 5, (.4) i= φ = φ 0, R UV = Q e φ 0, v = e φ 0 ρ 4, and this represents AdS 5 S 5. On the other hand, the asymptotic solutions in the IR region (ρ e y ) are evaluated as T = 6 y 8 y (9lny 3)+O ( ln y y 3 ), φ = ln(q )+lny y 9lny +O ( lny y ), ξ = ln(q )+y + 9 y ( ln y(9lny 9 )+O y ) y 3, η = ln+ y + y + ( ln y (9lny )+O y ). y 3 At the IR limit(ρ ), the metric (.) becomes ds = R IR ( dv v + v R 4 IR ( dt + (.5) 3 ) dx i dx i )+dω 5, (.6) i= φ = φ, R IR = 3 4 Q e φ, v = e φ ρ 4, and this also describes AdS 5 S 5 geometry. In section we study the D5-brane world volume action in the N electric D3-brane background in the UV/IR regions and analyse the behavior of the tension at a spike. Section 3 is devoted to some comments about the baryon configuration.. The D5-brane world volume action We consider the action of a D5-brane wrapped on S 5. The D5-brane world volume action consists of the Born-Infeld action and the WZ term. Since the Born-Infeld action in the Type 0 string theory is given in [5][0], we can write down D5-brane world volume action S = T 5 ( T d 6 σh )e φ det(g ab +F ab )+T 5 ( T h = + ) T 4 + 3T 3 +, A () dc (4), (.)
4 where g ab (= G µν a X µ b X ν ) is an induced metric, F ab (= da () ) is a U() gauge field strength on the D5-brane and C (4) is a four-form field. The σ = (t,θ,θ,θ,θ 3,θ 4 ) is a world volume coordinate of the D5-brane embedded on S 5. For simplicity we consider an SO(5) isometry in the S 5 and a static solution as [3]. Let ρ and A t depend only on θ and all other fields be zero. In this setup the action (.) becomes S = T 5 Ω 4 dtdθsin 4 θe ξ η{ ( T h e ) φ 5η ρ +e φ η F tθ +4A t e φ}, (.) where denotes the θ derivative and Ω 4 (= 8π ) is the volume of unit four sphere. The 3 gauge field equation of motion is obtained as θ K(θ) = 4eξ η+φ sin 4 θ, (.3) ( T K(θ) h sin ) 4 θe ξ η θ A t. (.4) e φ 5η ρ +e φ η ( θ A t ) Partially integrating (.), substituting (.4) into it and changing sign, we evaluate the action (.) in the tree level E ρ = T 5 Ω 4 dθ e φ 5η ρ +e φ η K(θ) +h sin 8 θe ξ 4η. (.5) This depends only on the ρ field... The UV region At the UV limit (ρ 0) Eq.(.5) is expressed by using Eq.(.4) as T 5 Ω 4 dθ v +v K(θ) + ( Q 4 h ) sin 8 θ, (.6) and Eq.(.3) is written as θ K(θ) = 4R UV 4 sin 4 θ. (.7) Since the right hand side of (.7) is a function of only θ not ρ, K(θ) is solvable and is determined as K(θ) = R 4 UV k(θ), k(θ) 3 (νπ θ)+ 3 sinθcosθ +sin3 θcosθ, where 0 < ν < is an integral constant. These results are similar to those in the Type IIB case [3], where ν = 0 corresponds to the baryon vertex and the spike sticking out at 3
5 θ = π has the tension equal to that of the N fundamental strings. So in this paper mainly we concentrate on the tension at ν = 0 and θ = π. Then Eq.(.6) implies that the tension at θ = π is T 5 Ω 4 K(π) = T 5 Ω 4 R UV 43π. Next we consider in the near UV region (ρ ). From Eqs.(.3) and (.3), the behavior of the K(θ) is given as K(θ) = e ξ η+φ k(θ), ( y +7)+ ) Qgs y (39lny k(θ), (.8) where g s = e φ is the string coupling. Substituting (.3) into (.5), we can evaluate the E ρ, E ρ =T 5 Ω 4 39ln y 5 y 5(39ln y 38) y + v +e 39ln y y 39ln y 38 y + v dθ e {( y +7)+ ) Qgs } y (39lny k(θ) +e ξ 4η h sin 8 θ. These imply that the tension of the D5-brane at θ = π and ν = 0 is expressed as ( T 5 Ω 4 + ) Qgs (39lny 7)+ 09lny +37)+ y 8y (5(lny) k(π) Qg s =p(ρ)t 5 Ω 4 k(π), (.9) p(ρ) 39ln( lnρ) 7 lnρ + 5(ln( lnρ)) 09ln( lnρ)+37 8(lnρ) +. Note that this tension includes a coupling constant g s and seems almost zero because the leading effective gravity solution (.3) is asymptotically free in the UV region, g s = e φ = 5 Q 39 ( lnρ) ln ρ +. But it is not a problem. The D5-brane s tension [5], T 5 = (π)5 (l s ) 6 g s, (.0) where l s is the string length, has also an inverse coupling. So effects of the couplings are canceled and the tension does not become almost zero in the UV region. The behavior of (.9) is shown in fig.. At the spike, v will dominate v. 4
6 p( ρ) (a) p( ρ) (b) ρ ρ fig. The behavior of p(ρ) in the UV region ρ. In fig., the (a) is the leading order approximation of p(ρ), that is, 39ln( lnρ) 7 lnρ and the (b) represents the second order approximation of p(ρ), that is, 39ln( lnρ) 7 lnρ + 5(ln( lnρ)) 09ln( lnρ)+37 8(lnρ). In the Type IIB case, the tension is constant since the radii of S 5 and AdS 5 are independent of ρ. On the other hand in the Type 0 case, the tension is not constant and flows as shown in fig. since the radii of S 5 and AdS 5 depend on ρ [7]. The (a) implies that there exist two points ρ = 0, and ρ = exp( exp( 7 39 )) 0.309, where p(ρ) =. The latter point is an interesting and non trivial point, but it is less credible since in this section the ρ region is analyzed. In fact this point vanishes in the second order approximation in the (b). From these analyses, we conclude that the tension increases away from the UV limit. We will give more comments in section 3... The IR region Since at the IR limit the metric (.6) describes AdS 5 S 5 geometry as in the UV limit, the similar behavior will occur also in the IR region. At the IR limit (ρ ) the action (.) is calculated by Eq.(.6) and Eq.(.3) is expressed as dθ v +v K(θ) + Q 8 h(0) sin 8 θ, (.) θ K(θ) = 4R IR 4 sin 4 θ. (.) 5
7 In the same way as the UV case, we concentrate on the tension at θ = π with ν = 0. Then Eq.(.) implies that the tension at the spike is T 5 Ω 4 R IR 43π. Since the R IR,R UV have the following expressions, R UV 4 = Q g s, R IR 4 = Q g s (.3) the ratio of tensions at the UV and the IR limits is tured out to be. Next we consider at the near IR region (ρ ). Substituting (.5) into (.3), we obtain the asymptotic form of the K(θ) K(θ) ( + 7 y + y (63lny +33)+ ) Qgs k(θ). Substituting (.5) into (.5), we calculate the E ρ E ρ =T 5 Ω 4 dθ e 9lny+5 y 5(9lny ) y + v +e lny+ 9 y 9lny y + v {( + 7 y + y (63lny +33)+ ) Qgs k(θ) } +e ξ 4η h sin 8 θ. From these equations the tension at θ = π is obtained as ( T 5 Ω 4 ) Qgs (9lny 9)+ +37)+ y 8y (8(lny) k(π) Qg s =q(ρ)t 5 Ω 4 k(π), (.4) q(ρ) 9lnlnρ 9 lnρ + 8(lnlnρ) +37 8(lnρ) +. Notethat thistension seems to diverge apparently since the string coupling g s behaves g s = e φ = Q (lnρ) 9 ln ρ +. But for the same reason as the UV case, the coupling g s is canceled with the one in the tension (.0). The behavior of (.4) is shown in fig.. 6
8 q( ρ) ln ρ 0.8 fig. The behavior of q(ρ) in the IR region (ρ ). In fig. there are also two points ρ = and numerically ρ = , where q(ρ) =. This is the same situation as the UV case. Note that the second point is not reliable, because the IR region has a very large coupling and the perturbative analysis is no longer credible. 3. Discussion In this paper we studied the static solution of D5-brane worldvolume action in the UV/IR regions in the background with large N electric D3-branes. In the Type IIB case a relation R 4 = 4πg s Nl s 4 is satisfied, where R is the radius of AdS 5 and S 5 and the N is the number of D3-branes. This number comes from the action d 0 x G( 5! F 5 ) associated with the five form field strength. On the other hand, at the UV limit of the Type 0B, a relation R UV 4 = Q g s is obtained from Eq.(.4) up to normalization and the five form field strength appears in the action [5], in a form, d 0 x ( G f(t) 5! F ) 5. This reads that f(t) contributes to N in the Type 0 case (cf. (.) ). So using the same normalization as the type IIB case, we can calculate the R 4 UV as, R 4 N UV = 4πg s l 4 f( ) s = 4 πg s Nl 4 s. (3.) 7
9 In the same way for the IR limit, we obtain R 4 N IR = 4πg s l 4 f(0) s = 4πg s Nl 4 s. (3.) Eqs.(3.) and (3.) are consistent with the (.3). Then from Eqs.(.0) and (3.), the tension becomes T 5 Ω 4 R UV 4 k(π) = N πl s = NT f, where T f is a tension of a fundamental string. This corresponds to the bound state of N quarksinsu(n)gaugetheory,i.e. abaryon. Asmentionedinsection.,intheUVregion, there exist two points, the UV limit point ρ = 0 and the non trivial one (ρ = ), where the tension is equal to NT f. But the latter is less credible, because Eq.(.9) is reliable only in small ρ region and in fact the second point disappears in the analysis including the second order approximation. It would be interpreted as some perturbative effects. Since in the IR limit, from Eqs.(.0) and (3.), we obtain the formula of tension, T 5 Ω 4 R IR 4 k(π) = N πl s = N T f. In this case, the number of fundamental strings is not integer and this state is not a standard baryon. It may represent some quantum effects in such a confinement region with a strong coupling. If the flow of tension is connected smoothly from the UV limit to the IR limit, there must exist at least one point where a baryon configuration with N quarks is realised, since the flow increases near the UV limit. But we are not able to determine this interesting point exactly, since the full metric of D3-brane background has not been known yet and we cannot discuss how the UV solution is connected with the IR solution. If the full metric is found, the behavior of that non trivial point will be clarified. Though in this paper the background with only the N electric D3-branes is discussed, this method will be applicable to more general backgrounds, for example, a model with N electric and N magnetic D3-branes, in which case the dual theory is an SU(N) SU(N) Yang-Mills theory [] [].
