Abstract

We extend the BMN duality between IIB superstring theory on a pp-wave background and a sector of N=4 super Yang–Mills theory to the non-supersymmetric and unstable background built by Romans as a compactification on a U(1) bundle over CP 2 with 3-form and 5-form field strength fluxes. We obtain a stable theory with the fewest number of supercharges (e.g., 16) allowed by this kind of solutions and make conjectures on the dual gauge theory.
