The D3-D5 probe-brane system is holographically dual to a defect CFT which is known to be integrable. The evidence comes mainly from the study of correlation functions at weak coupling. In the present work we shed light on the emergence of integrability on the string theory side. We do so by constructing the double row transfer matrix which is conserved when the appropriate boundary conditions are imposed. The corresponding reflection matrix turns out to be dynamical and depends both on the spectral parameter and the string embedding coordinates.

  1. Solving for the integrable boundary states of the ABJM spin chain from $KT$-relations

    hep-th 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0

    Integrable chiral and achiral n-site boundary states of the ABJM spin chain are obtained by solving KT-relations for elementary blocks and K(u), with nontrivial solutions for even n and operator-valued 1-site Clifford pairs.

  2. Chiral Integrable Boundary States of ABJM Spin Chain from Reflection Equations

    hep-th 2026-02 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A framework is proposed for 2n-site chiral integrable matrix product states in the ABJM spin chain from reflection equations, with exact overlap formulas for four-site states and numerical checks of subspaces.
