Abstract

The existence of a nontrivial interpolating function h(λ) is one of the novel features of the new AdS4/CFT3 correspondence involving ABJM theory. At strong coupling, most of the investigation of semiclassical effects so far has been for strings in the AdS 4 sector. Several cutoff prescriptions have been proposed, leading to different predictions for the constant term in the expansion h(λ) = √λ/2+c+… . We calculate quantum corrections for giant magnons, using the algebraic curve, and show by comparing to the dispersion relation that the same prescriptions lead to the same values of c in this CP 3 sector. We then turn to finite-J effects, where a comparison with the Lüscher F-term correction shows a mismatch for one of the three sum prescriptions. We also compute some dyonic and higher F-terms for future comparisons.
