Zeta-function regularization of holographic Wilson loops
Abstract
Using $${\zeta}$$-function regularization, we study the one-loop effective action of fundamental strings in $$Ad{S}_{5}\times{}{S}^{5}$$ dual to the latitude $$\frac{1}{4}$$-BPS Wilson loop in $$\mathcal{N}=4$$ super-Yang-Mills theory. To avoid certain ambiguities inherent to string theory on curved backgrounds we subtract the effective action of the holographic $$\frac{1}{2}$$-BPS Wilson loop. We find agreement with the expected field theory result at first order in the small latitude angle expansion but discrepancies at higher order.
