Supersymmetric mixed boundary conditions in AdS2 and DCFT1 marginal deformations

Abstract: We study mixing boundary conditions in AdS 2 motivated by a family of 1/6 BPS Wilson loops in ABJM theory which interpolates between the bosonic 1/6 and the 1/2 BPS loops. The deformation that takes the 1/6 loop to the 1/2 loop is Q-exact and can be thought as an exact marginal deformation in the defect CFT 1 defined by the loop. Insertions along the loop lead to conformal

“…Very little has been done in this direction since the original proposal for the holographic dual in [22][23][24]. Proposals for the holographic duals of 1/2 BPS loops in some N = 4 theories were put forward in [3] and a first examination of a possible moduli space of 1/6 BPS loops in ABJ(M) theory was done in [44].…”

“…The structure of Wilson loops in ABJM theory is richer than in N = 4 SYM [21], admitting different realizations through the fundamental lagrangian fields [22][23][24], sometimes leading to the same quantum expectations values through a cohomological equivalence [24]. The relevant defect field theories should be able to fully distinguish them, possibly describing different Wilson lines in terms of marginal deformations [25]. Further motivations are the potential existence of topological sectors, that could be associated to new supersymmetric localization procedures, and the relations with integrability, that might lead to an alternative derivation of the elusive h(λ) function of ABJM [26] (see also [27]).…”

“…In fact, for the fermionic operator the Matrix Model result expanded at strong coupling matches the holographic calculation. For the bosonic latitude no precise dual string configuration has been determined yet, though much progress has been recently done in [80], and therefore our findings constitute a brand new prediction, begging for a string theory confirmation.…”
