Little string theories on curved manifolds

Abstract In this paper, we study the 6d Little String Theory (LST) (the decoupled theory on the worldvolume of N NS5-branes) on curved manifolds, by using its holographic duality to Type II string theory in asymptotically linear dilaton backgrounds. We focus on backgrounds with a large number of Kil...
