D-branes in AdS3 × S3 × S3 × S1
A bstract String theory on AdS 3 × S 3 × S 3 × S 1 with two units of NS flux through each of the two 3-spheres (and one unit of NS flux supporting the AdS 3 factor) was recently argued to be exactly dual to the symmetric orbifold of eight free fermions and two bosons. This setup is interesting since it allows for a simple NS-R description. In this paper we study the spherical D-branes of this theory, and identify them with branes in the dual symmetric orbifold theory. We also comment briefly on the AdS 2 branes.
