Abstract

We study minimal surfaces with a single cusp in a qq-deformed AdS5×_5\timesS5^5 background. The cusp is composed of two half-lines with an arbitrary angle and is realized on a surface specified in the deformed AdS5_5. The classical string solutions attached to this cusp are regarded as a generalization of configurations studied by Drukker and Forini in the undeformed case. By taking an antiparallel-lines limit, a quark-antiquark potential for the qq-deformed case is derived with a certain subtraction scheme. The resulting potential becomes linear at short distances with a finite deformation parameter. In particular, the linear behavior for the gravity dual of noncommutative gauge theories can be reproduced as a special scaling limit. Finally we study the near straight-line limit of the potential.
