abstract

We conjecture the Quantum Spectral Curve equations for string theory on $AdS_3 \times S^3 \times T^4$ with RR charge and its CFT$_2$ dual. We show that in the large-length regime, under additional mild assumptions, the QSC reproduces the Asymptotic Bethe Ansatz equations for the massive sector of the theory, including the exact dressing phases found in the literature. The structure of the QSC shares many similarities with the previously known AdS$_5$ and AdS$_4$ cases, but contains a critical new feature - the branch cuts are no longer quadratic. Nevertheless, we show that much of the QSC analysis can be suitably generalised producing a self-consistent system of equations. While further tests are necessary, particularly outside the massive sector, the simplicity and self-consistency of our construction suggests the completeness of the QSC.

    hep-th 2025-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The first curvature correction to the AdS3 x S3 Virasoro-Shapiro amplitude for four arbitrary KK modes is obtained as a single-valued polylogarithm worldsheet integral, yielding new anomalous dimensions and OPE data f...

  2. Exchange relations and crossing

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Modified crossing equations for S-matrices with nontrivial braiding are proposed, and a new sign in the massless AdS3 crossing equation yields a simpler dressing factor.

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The pure-RR AdS3×S3×T4 mirror TBA is reformulated as an extended Y-system with local discontinuity relations, and the TBA is recovered by inversion, establishing their equivalence.

  4. The Triplet Perturbation of the Symmetric Orbifold

    hep-th 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The triplet perturbation of the T4 symmetric orbifold is shown to preserve the same integrable structure as the singlet and is identified with the self-dual R-R 2-form modulus in AdS3/CFT2.

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    From the Quantum Spectral Curve, the authors derive the Asymptotic Baxter-Bethe Ansatz, which determines the asymptotic BFKL spectrum of Regge trajectories in N=4 SYM, reproduces known weak-coupling results, and suppo...

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Massless dressing factors for the mixed-flux AdS3xS3xT4 S-matrix are completed from the massive ones, checked against all symmetries and tree-level perturbation theory, and used to propose mirror TBA equations.

  7. Boundary Bethe ansatz in massive $AdS_3$

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The authors derive universal auxiliary Bethe equations and transfer-matrix eigenvalues for massive representations of the AdS3xS3xT4 integrable string with singlet and vector boundaries.

    hep-th 2025-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The FPS model's massive sector has UV central charge c=6(1-1/k), its massless sectors contribute c=N_0+2, so doubling the supersymmetry does not double the central charge.
