Higher Rank ABJM Wilson Loops from Matrix Models

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

We compute the vacuum expectation values of 1/61/6 supersymmetric Wilson loops in higher dimensional representations of the gauge group in ABJM theory. We present results for the mm-symmetric and mm-antisymmetric representations by exploiting standard matrix model techniques. At leading order, in the saddle point approximation, our expressions reproduce holographic results from both D6 and D2 branes corresponding to the antisymmetric and symmetric representations, respectively. We also compute 1/N corrections to the leading saddle point results.
