View source for Little string theory

In [[theoretical physics]], '''little string theory''' is a non-gravitational non-local theory in six [[spacetime]] dimensions that can be obtained as an effective theory of [[NS5-brane]]s in the limit in which gravity decouples. Little string theories exhibit [[T-duality]], much like the full [[string theory]].
