Abstract

We consider various integrable two-parameter deformations of the AdS3×S3×T4AdS_3 \times S^3 \times T^4 superstring with quantum group symmetry. Working on the string worldsheet in light-cone gauge and to quadratic order in fermions, we obtain their common massive tree-level two-body S matrix, which matches the expansion of the conjectured exact qq-deformed S matrix. We then analyze the behavior of the exact S matrix under mirror transformation -- a double Wick rotation on the worldsheet -- and find that it satisfies a mirror duality relation analogous to the distinguished qq-deformed AdS5×S5AdS_5 \times S^5 S matrix in the one parameter deformation limit. Finally, we show that the fermionic qq-deformed AdS5×S5AdS_5 \times S^5 S matrix also satisfies such a relation.
