For 0 ≤ λ < 1 the bosonic tree-level S-matrix of λ-deformed AdS3 strings remains integrable via cancellation of non-elastic processes, but becomes ill-defined as λ → 1 even though the geometry matches the non-Abelian T-dual.

abstract
We investigate the type IIA AdS(3) x S(3) x M(4) superstring with M(4)=S(3) x S(1) or M(4)=T(4). String theory in this background is interesting because of AdS3/CFT2 and its newly discovered integrable structures. We derive the kappa symmetry gauge-fixed Green-Schwarz string action to quadratic order in fermions and quartic order in fields utilizing a near BMN expansion. As a first consistency check of our results we show that the two point functions are one-loop finite in dimensional regularization. We then perform a Hamiltonian analysis where we compare the energy of string states with the predictions of a set of conjectured Bethe equations. While we find perfect agreement for single rank one sectors, we find that the product SU(2) x SU(2) sector does not match unless the Bethe equations decouple completely. We then calculate 2 to 2 bosonic tree-level scattering processes on the string worldsheet and show that the two-dimensional S-matrix is reflectionless. This might be important due to the presence of massless worldsheet excitations which are generally not described by the Bethe equations.

Tree-level S matrix for $\lambda$-deformed AdS3 strings
For 0 ≤ λ < 1 the bosonic tree-level S-matrix of λ-deformed AdS3 strings remains integrable via cancellation of non-elastic processes, but becomes ill-defined as λ → 1 even though the geometry matches the non-Abelian T-dual.
