Abstract

Single trace operators with the large R-charge in supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory correspond to the null-surfaces in AdS(5) x S-5. We argue that the moduli space of the null-surfaces is the space of contours in the super-grassmanian parametrizing the complex (2|2)-dimensional subspaces of the complex (4|4)-dimensional space. The odd coordinates on this super-grassmanian correspond to the fermionic degrees of freedom of the superstring.
