Abstract
We study classical and quantum finite-size corrections to giant magnons in AdS_4 x CP^3 using generalised Lüscher formulae. Lüscher F-terms are organised in powers of the exponential suppression factor exp(-Delta/2h)^m, and we calculate all terms in this series, matching one-loop algebraic curve results from our previous paper arXiv:1006.2174. Starting with the second term, the structure of these terms is different to those in AdS_5 x S^5 thanks to the appearance of heavy modes in the loop, which can here be interpreted as two-particle bound states in the mirror theory. By contrast, physical bound states can represent dyonic giant magnons, and we also calculate F-terms for these solutions. Lüscher mu-terms, suppressed by exp(-Delta/E), instead give at leading order the classical finite-size correction. For an elementary dyonic giant magnon, we recover the correction given by arXiv:0903.3365. We then extend this to calculate the next term in 1/h, giving a one-loop prediction. Finally we also calculate F-terms for the various composite giant magnons, RP^3 and `big', again finding agreement to all orders.
