Spin Chains in N=6 Superconformal Chern-Simons-Matter Theory

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-06-04 v2

Abstract

In this note we study spin chain operators in the N=6 Chern-Simons-matter theory recently proposed by Aharony, Bergman, Jafferis and Maldacena to be dual to type IIA string theory in AdS4xCP3. We study the two-loop dilatation operator in the gauge theory, and compare to the Penrose limit on the string theory side.
