D-instantons probing D3-branes and the AdS/CFT correspondence

High Energy Physics - Theory 2008-11-26 v3

Abstract

D-instantons are considered as a probe of coinciding NN D3-branes. They can feel an external metric via the commutator terms in their effective action. We show that when the D-instantons are separated from the D3-branes, the metric which is probed at the one loop level, {\it exactly} coincides with that of the BPS R-R 3-brane. Interesting connection of this result to the possible explanation of the AdS/CFT correspondence within IKKT M-atrix theory is discussed.
