Exact results for Wilson loops in orbifold ABJM theory

Understand

We investigate the exact results for circular 1/4 and 1/2 BPS Wilson loops in the $d=3$ ${\mathcal N}=4$ super Chern-Simons-matter theory that could be obtained by orbifolding Aharony-Bergman-Jafferis-Maldacena (ABJM) theory.

• The partition function of the ${\mathcal N}=4$ orbifold ABJM theory has been computed previously in the literature.
• In this paper, we re-derive it using a slightly different method.
• We calculate the vacuum expectation values of the circular 1/4 BPS Wilson loops in fundamental representation and of circular 1/2 BPS Wilson loops in arbitrary representations.
