We give an exact analytic solution of the strong coupling limit of the integral equation which was recently proposed to describe the universal scaling function of high spin operators in = 4 gauge theory. The solution agrees with the prediction from string theory, confirms the earlier numerical analysis and provides a basis for developing a systematic perturbation theory around strong coupling.

A generalized scaling function for AdS/CFT

We study a refined large spin limit for twist operators in the sector of AdS/CFT. We derive a novel non-perturbative equation for the generalized two-parameter scaling function associated with this…

Anomalous dimensions of Wilson operators in N=4 SYM theory

Test of the anti-de Sitter-space/conformal-field-theory correspondence using high-spin operators.

In a confirmation of the anti-de Sitter-space/conformal-field-theory (AdS/CFT) correspondence, a smooth function is found whose two leading terms at strong coupling match the results obtained for the semiclassical folded string spinning in AdS5.

Quantum corrections to the string Bethe ansatz

One-loop corrections to the energy of semiclassical rotating strings contain both analytic and non-analytic terms in the ’t Hooft coupling. Analytic contributions agree with the prediction from the…
