Non-abelian (p,q) strings in the warped deformed conifold

We calculate the tension of (p,q)-strings in the warped deformed conifold using the non-Abelian DBI action. In the large flux limit, we find exact agreement with the recent expression obtained by Firouzjahi, Leblond and Henry-Tye up to and including order 1/M2 terms if q is also taken to be large. Furthermore using the finite q prescription for the symmetrised trace operation we anticipate the most general expression for the tension valid for any (p,q). We find that even in this instance, corrections to the tension scale as 1/M2 which is not consistent with simple Casimir scaling.
