Abstract

We obtain the solutions and explicitly calculate the energy for a class of two-spin semiclassical string states in the Lunin-Maldacena background. These configurations are β-deformed versions of the folded string solutions in AdS_{5}\times S^{5} background. They correspond to certain single trace operators in the \mathcal{N}=1 superconformal βdeformation of \mathcal{N}=4 Yang-Mills. We calculate the one loop anomalous dimension for the dual single trace operator from the associated twisted spin chain with a general two-cut distribution of Bethe roots. Our results show a striking match between the two calculations. We demonstrate the natural identification of parameters on the two sides of the analysis, and explain the significance of the Virasoro constraint associated with the winding motion of semiclassical strings from the perspective of the spin chain solution.
