Penrose limits of Abelian and non-Abelian T-duals of AdS 5 × S 5 and their field theory duals

Abstract We consider the backgrounds obtained by Abelian and non-Abelian T-duality applied on AdS 5 × S 5. We study geodesics, calculate Penrose limits and find the associated plane-wave geometries. We quantise the weakly coupled type-IIA string theory on these backgrounds. We study the BMN sector,...
