abstract
We compute the one-loop effective action of string configurations embedded in $AdS_4\times\mathbb{CP}^3$ which are dual to $\frac{1}{6}$-BPS latitude Wilson Loops in the ABJM theory. To avoid ambiguities in the string path integral we subtract the $\frac{1}{2}$-BPS case. The one-loop determinants are computed by Fourier-decomposing the two dimensional operators and then using the Gel'fand-Yaglom method. We comment on various aspects related to the regularization procedure, showing the cancellation of a hierarchy of divergences. After taking into account an IR anomaly from a change in topology, we find a precise agreement with the field theory result known from supersymmetric localization.

Vacuum configuration of winding superstrings from non-standard semiclassical quantization
A non-standard off-shell quantization of the worldsheet metric yields a self-consistent vacuum configuration and Hagedorn temperatures for confining holographic theories, reproducing known next-to-leading order and providing new partial next-to-next-to-leading order predictions.
