Description

In addition to the cases involving $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM and ABJM theory, some prominent AdS3/CFT2 dualities also appear to be integrable. I will discuss the proposal for a Quantum Spectral Curve (QSC) – the mathematical tool to describe the spectrum – in the case of string theory on AdS3xS3xT4 with Ramond-Ramond flux. Contrary to the two previously known cases, the form of the QSC for this theory was fixed with a bootstrap-like consistency approach. I will discuss the logic of this proposal, some new unexpected features of this QSC, and some first applications.
