Membrane instantons and non-perturbative effects in

Stefan A. Kurlyand

We study Euclidean M2-brane instantons in Freund-Rubin backgrounds . For a seven-dimensional weak manifold , we show that…

Strong coupling expansion of BPS Wilson loop in SYM theory and 2-loop Green-Schwarz string in AdSS

Matteo Beccaria, Stefan A. Kurlyand, Arkady A. Tseytlin

The exact localization result for the expectation value of the BPS circular Wilson loop in SYM theory is given in the planar limit by the famous Bessel func…

2-loop free energy of M2 brane in AdS S and surface defect anomaly in (2,0) theory

Matteo Beccaria, Stefan A. Kurlyand, Arkady A. Tseytlin

A -BPS surface operator viewed as a conformal defect in rank 6d (2,0) theory is expected to have a holographic description in terms of a probe M2 brane wrapped on…

On non-planar ABJM anomalous dimensions from M2 branes in AdS

Matteo Beccaria, Stefan A. Kurlyand, Arkady A. Tseytlin

Planar parts of conformal dimensions of primary operators in ABJM theory are controlled by integrability. Strong coupling asymptotics of planar dimensions…

Non-planar corrections in ABJM theory from quantum M2 branes

Simone Giombi, Stefan A. Kurlyand, Arkady A. Tseytlin

The quantization of semiclassical strings in AdS spacetimes yields predictions for the strong-coupling behaviour of the scaling dimensions of the corresponding operators in the pla…
