Abstract
We investigate the "giant gravitons" of McGreevy, Susskind and Toumbas [1]. We demonstrate that these are BPS configurations which preserve precisely the same supersymmetries as a "point-like" graviton. We also show that ther e exist "dual" giant gravitons consisting of spherical branes expanding int o the AdS component of the spacetime. Finally, we discuss the realization o f the stringy exclusion principle within this expanded framework.
