Abstract
We discuss the non-relativistic limit of string theory in AdS5×S5 for different choices of embedding coordinates. We show that, if we consider Cartesian coordinates, the action of fluctuations around the twisted BMN-like string found in arXiv:2109.13240 in uniform light-cone gauge becomes the one of free fields at large string tension and large AdS5 radius.
