Description
Integrability of open strings ending on D7 branes is an interesting problem because one can consider two distinct embeddings, S2 ×S2 or S4. The more symmetric case has been shown to be suggestive of integrability in previous works in the gauge theory, whilst the opposite is true for the S2s. For simple solutions, analytic non-integrability techniques have been applied to both cases, but have shown that these cases seem to sit in some integrable class of solutions. One could try and set up a more complicated problem and use the same techniques to find evidence of non-integrability, which doesn’t seem to be straightforward or perhaps there are other methods one can explore to confirm the gauge theory results.
