Holographic Wilson Loops in Symmetric Representations in N = 2* Super-Yang-Mills Theory

Abstract

We construct the D3-brane solution in the holographic dual of the N = 2* theory that describes Wilson lines in symmetric representations of the gauge group. The results perfectly agree with the direct field-theory predictions based on localization.
