We compute the one-loop effective action of string configurations embedded in $AdS_4\times\mathbb{CP}^3$ which are dual to $\frac{1}{6}$-BPS latitude Wilson Loops in the ABJM theory. To avoid ambiguities in the string path integral we…
We evaluate three-point correlation functions of single trace operators in N=4 SYM at both weak and strong coupling. We focus on the case where two of the operators belong in a SL(2) sub-sector, and are dual to string solutions in a broad…
We compute three-point functions of general operators in the su(1|1) sector of planar N = 4 SYM in the weak coupling regime, both at tree-level and one-loop. Each operator is represented by a closed spin chain Bethe state characterized by a…
