Abstract

Sigma model in AdS3×S3AdS_3\times S^3 background supported by both NS-NS and R-R fluxes is one of the most distinguished integrable models. We study a class of classical string solutions for NN-spike strings moving in AdS3×S1AdS_3 \times S^1 with angular momentum JJ in S1S5S^1 \subset S^5 in the presence of mixed flux. We observe that the addition of angular momentum JJ or winding number mm results in the spikes getting rounded off and not end in cusp. The presence of flux shows no alteration to the rounding-off nature of the spikes. We also consider the large NN-limit of NN-spike string in AdS3×S1AdS_3 \times S^1 in the presence of flux and show that the so-called Energy-Spin dispersion relation is analogous to the solution we get for the periodic-spike in AdS3ppAdS_3-pp-wave ×S1\times S^1 background with flux.
