Abstract:
Recently we found a solitonic vortex string supported in U(2) super-Yang-Mills
that appears to be a critical superstring in 10 dimensions R_4\times Y_6 where
Y_6 is a noncompact Calabi-Yau manifold. I briefly review this derivation and present new results
on the string spectrum. Conceptually the emergent construction is close
to little strings. It presents an example of "reverse holography".
