On gauge/string correspondence and mirror symmetry

Abstract

We consider a mirror dual of the Berkovits-Vafa A-model for the BPS superstring on AdS5×S5AdS_5\times S^5 in the form of a deformed superconifold. Via geometric transition, the theory has a dual description as the hermitian gaussian one-matrix model. We show that the A-model amplitudes of generic AdS2×S4AdS_2\times S^4 branes, breaking the superconformal symmetry as U(2,24)OSp(44)U(2,2|4)\to OSp(4^*|4), are evaluated in terms of observables in the matrix model. As such, upon the usual identification gYM2=gsg_{YM}^2=g_s, these can be expanded as Drukker-Gross circular 1/2-BPS Wilson loops in the perturbative regime of N=4{\cal N}=4 SYM.
