Abstract

We study minimal surfaces in qq-deformed AdS5×_5\timesS5^5 with a new coordinate system introduced in the previous work 1408.2189. In this letter, we introduce Poincare coordinates for the deformed theory. Then we construct minimal surfaces whose boundary shape is a circle. The solution corresponds to a 1/2 BPS circular Wilson loop in the q1q\to 1 limit. A remarkable point is that the classical Euclidean action is not divergent unlike the original one. This finiteness indicates that the qq-deformation may be regarded as a UV regularization.
