Quantum Strings and the AdS4/CFT3 Interpolating Function

Understand

The existence of a nontrivial interpolating function h(\lambda) is one of the novel features of the new AdS4/CFT3 correspondence involving ABJM theory.

• At strong coupling, most of the investigation of semiclassical effects so far has been for strings in the AdS4 sector.
• Several cutoff prescriptions have been proposed, leading to different predictions for the constant term in the expansion h(\lambda)=\sqrt{\lambda/2} + c + ...
