Quantum folded string and integrability: from finite size effects to Konishi dimension

Using the algebraic curve approach we one-loop quantize the folded string solution for the type IIB superstring in AdS(5)xS(5). We obtain an explicit result valid for arbitrary values of its Lorentz spin S and R-charge J in terms of integrals of elliptic functions. Then we consider the limit S ~ J ~ 1 and derive the leading three coefficients of strong coupling expansion of short operators. Notably, our result evaluated for the anomalous dimension of the Konishi state gives 2λ^{1/4}-4+2/λ^{1/4}. This reproduces correctly the values predicted numerically in arXiv:0906.4240. Furthermore we compare our result using some new numerical data from the Y-system for another similar state. We also revisited some of the large S computations using our methods. In particular, we derive finite--size corrections to the anomalous dimension of operators with small J in this limit.

Giant magnons in AdS_4/CFT_3: dispersion, quantization and finite--size corrections

We study giant magnon solutions in AdS4 \times CP3. We compute quantum corrections to their dispersion relation. We find out that the one--loop correction vanishes in infinite volume. This implies that the interpolating function h(λ) between strong and weak coupling regimes does not have a constant term λ^0 at strong coupling. We also compute first nonvanishing finite volume correction to the one--loop expression. When compared to the Lüsher formula, our results could provide a nontrivial check of the AdS4 \times CP3 S--matrix proposed recently in arXiv:0807.1924.
