One-loop quantization of Euclidean D3-branes in holographic backgrounds

One-loop quantization of Euclidean D3-branes in holographic backgrounds
In this note we analyze the semi-classical quantization of D3-branes in three different holographic backgrounds in type IIB string theory. The first background is Euclidean AdS5 with S1 × S3 boundary accompanied with a twist to preserve supersymmetry. We work out the spectrum of fluctuations around the classical D3-brane configuration, compute its one-loop partition function, and match to the non-perturbative correction to the superconformal index of N = 4 SYM. We then study Euclidean D3-branes in the Pilch-Warner geometry dual to the IR Leigh-Strassler fixed point of N = 1* with the aim to find non-perturbative corrections to its index. Finally we study Euclidean D3-branes in the non-geometric N = 2 J-fold background which is dual to the gauging of the 3D Gaiotto-Witten SCFT.

Abstract

In this note we analyze the semi-classical quantization of D3-branes in three different holographic backgrounds in type IIB string theory. The first background is Euclidean AdS5 with S1 × S3 boundary accompanied with a twist to preserve supersymmetry. We work out the spectrum of fluctuations around the classical D3-brane configuration, compute its one-loop partition function, and match to the non-perturbative correction to the superconformal index of N = 4 SYM. We then study Euclidean D3-branes in the Pilch-Warner geometry dual to the IR Leigh-Strassler fixed point of N = 1* with the aim to find non-perturbative corrections to its index. Finally we study Euclidean D3-branes in the non-geometric N = 2 J-fold background which is dual to the gauging of the 3D Gaiotto-Witten SCFT.
