We compare solutions of the quantum string Bethe equations with explicit one-loop calculations in the sigma-model on AdS(5)xS(5). The Bethe ansatz exactly reproduces the spectrum of infinitely long strings. When the length is finite, we…

Recently, an impressive agreement was found between anomalous dimensions of certain operators in N=4 SYM and rotating strings with two angular momenta in the bulk of AdS5xS5. A one-loop field theory computation, which involves solving a…
We investigate the type IIA AdS(3) x S(3) x M(4) superstring with M(4)=S(3) x S(1) or M(4)=T(4). String theory in this background is interesting because of AdS3/CFT2 and its newly discovered integrable structures. We derive the kappa…
We demonstrate that the recently found agreement between one-loop scaling dimensions of large dimension operators in N=4 gauge theory and energies of spinning strings on AdS_5 x S^5 extends to the eigenvalues of an infinite number of hidden…
We consider finite-size corrections in the SU(2) x SU(2) sector of type IIA string theory on AdS_4 x CP^3, which is the string dual of the recently constructed N=6 superconformal Chern-Simons theory of Aharony, Bergman, Jafferis and…
Following our earlier work in arXiv:0906.4294 we show how to use semiclassical string quantization approach to compute the leading corrections to the energy of AdS_5 x S^5 string states on the first excited string level that should…
We write down the Algebraic Bethe Ansatz for string theory on $\mbox{AdS}_3\times\mbox{S}^3\times\mbox{T}^4$ and $\mbox{AdS}_3\times\mbox{S}^3\times\mbox{K3}$ in its orbifold limits. We use it to determine the wave-functions of protected…
Two distinct $\eta$-deformations of strings on AdS$_5\times$S$^5$ can be defined; both amount to integrable quantum deformations of the string non-linear sigma model, but only one is itself a superstring background. In this paper we compare…
We conjecture the Quantum Spectral Curve equations for string theory on $AdS_3 \times S^3 \times T^4$ with RR charge and its CFT$_2$ dual. We show that in the large-length regime, under additional mild assumptions, the QSC reproduces the…
