Large branes in AdS and their field theory dualDOI: 10.1088/1126-6708/2000/08/051 Abstract: Recently it was suggested that a graviton in $AdS_5 \times S^5$ with a large momentum along the sphere can blow up into a spherical D-brane in $S^5$. In this paper we show that the same graviton can also blow up into a spherical D-brane in $AdS_5$ with exactly the same quantum numbers (angular momentum and energy). These branes are BPS, preserving 16 of the 32 supersymmetries. We show that there is a BPS {\it classical} solution for SYM on $S^3\times R$ with exactly the same quantum numbers. The solution has non-vanishing Higgs expectation values and hence is dual to the large brane in AdS.
