A semiclassical analysis of the fluctuation eigenvalues and the one-loop energy of the folded spinning superstring in AdS₅ x S⁵

الأصل · EN

We systematically construct a semiclassical expansion for the eigenvalues of the 2nd order quantum fluctuations of the folded spinning superstring rotating in the AdS₃ part of AdS₅ x S⁵ with two alternative methods; by using the exact expression of the Bloch momentum generated by the curvature induced periodic potentials and by using the large energy expansion of the dispersion relation. We then calculate the one-loop correction to the energy by summing over the eigenvalues. Our results are extremely accurate for strings whose ends are not too close to the AdS radius. Finally we derive the small spin Regge expansion in the context of zeta function approximation.
