Large-NN holography for the self-dual integrable Sp(K)\operatorname{Sp}(K) theory

Let AN,K\mathcal{A}^{N,K} be the open string algebra obtained from the defect chiral algebra by setting the bulk operators to zero, and let KK be the rank parameter of the self-dual integrable Sp(K)\operatorname{Sp}(K) theory.

Large-NN holography conjecture. The large NN limit of the open string algebra AN,K\mathcal{A}^{N,K} is the celestial chiral algebra for the self-dual integrable Sp(K)\operatorname{Sp}(K) theory, deformed by the D5D5 brane backreaction.

This identifies the large-NN open-string algebra with the celestial chiral algebra of the backreacted self-dual gauge theory. The source presents this as the holographic description of the decoupled D5D5'-brane system; its resolution is not established here.
