Wavy Wilson line and AdS/CFT. (English) Zbl 1072.81050

Int. J. Mod. Phys. A 20, No. 13, 2833-2846 (2005).
Summary: Wilson loops which are small deviations from straight, infinite lines, called wavy lines, are considered in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence. A single wavy line and the connected correlation function of a straight and wavy line are considered. It is argued that, to leading order in “waviness,” the functional form of the loop is universal and the coefficient, which is a function of the ’t Hooft coupling, is found in weak coupling perturbation theory and the strong coupling limit using the AdS/CFT correspondence. Supersymmetric arguments are used to simplify the computation and to show that the straight line obeys the Migdal-Makeenko loop equation.
