Marginal deformations of \(\mathcal{N} = 4 \text{ SYM}\) and open vs. closed string parameters. (English) Zbl 1325.81145

Summary: We make precise the connection between the generic Leigh-Strassler deformation of \(\mathcal{N} = 4 \text{ SYM}\) and noncommutativity. We construct an appropriate noncommutativity matrix, which turns out to define a nonassociative deformation. Viewing this noncommutativity matrix as part of the set of open string data which characterize the deformation and mapping them to the closed string data (e.g. metric and B-field), we are able to construct the gravity dual and the corresponding deformed flat space geometry up to third order in the deformation parameter {\(\rho\)}.
