Abstract

We determine the AdS₅× S⁵ solution of type IIB superstring field theory (SFT) to the third order in the expansion with respect to Ramond-Ramond (RR) flux, demonstrate its supersymmetry from the SFT gauge transformations, and identify the massless RR axion in the spectrum of linearized fluctuations. We present an all-order solution in the pp-wave limit and comment on potential obstructions to, and the existence of, the all-order AdS₅× S⁵ solution.
