We briefly review a tunneling picture of rotating D3-brane solutions. By applying the "double Wick rotation" to the Lorentzian solutions, we construct Euclidean solutions. The solutions are composed of dual giant gravitons and spike D3-brane solutions, and their classical actions reproduce expectation values of the k-th symmetric Wilson loops as well as correlation functions of dual giant graviton operators as expected.

The forward-walking Green's Function Monte Carlo method is used to compute expectation values for the transverse Ising model in (1 + 1)D, and the results are compared with exact values. The magnetisation Mz and the correlation function p z (n) are computed. The algorithm reproduces the exact results, and convergence for the correlation functions seems almost as rapid as for local observables such as the magnetisation. The results are found to be sensitive to the trial wavefunction, however, especially at the critical point.

The matrix model of the Aharony-Bergman-Jafferis-Maldacena theory can be formulated in terms of an ideal Fermi gas with a non-trivial one-particle Hamiltonian. We show that, in this formalism, vacuum expectation values (vevs) of Wilson loops correspond to averages of operators in the statistical-mechanical problem. This makes it possible to calculate these vevs at all orders in 1/N, up to exponentially small corrections, and for arbitrary Chern-Simons coupling, by using the Wentzel- Kramer-Brillouin expansion.We present explicit results for the vevs of 1/6 and the 1/2 Bogomolnyi- Prasad-Sommerfield Wilson loops, at any winding number, in terms of Airy functions. Our expressions are shown to reproduce the low genus results obtained previously in the ’t Hooft expansion.

Abstract Quiver gauge theories with a large number of nodes host a wealth of Wilson loop operators. Expectation values are obtained, using supersymmetric localization, for Wilson loops in the antisymmetric representations associated with each individual gauge node, for a sample of 5d long quiver gauge theories whose UV fixed points have holographic duals in Type IIB. The sample includes the TN theories and the results are uniformly given in terms of Bloch-Wigner functions. The holographic representation of the Wilson loops is identified. It comprises, for each supergravity solution, a two-parameter family of D3-branes which exactly reproduce the field theory results and identify points in the internal space with the faces of the associated 5-brane web. The expectation values of (anti)fundamental Wilson loops exhibit an enhanced scaling for many operators, which matches between field theory and supergravity.

Abstract The 1/2-BPS Wilson loop in $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory is an important and well-studied example of conformal defect. In particular, much work has been done for the correlation functions of operator insertions on the Wilson loop in the fundamental representation. In this paper, we extend such analyses to Wilson loops in the large-rank symmetric and antisymmetric representations, which correspond to probe D3 and D5 branes with AdS2× S2 and AdS2× S4 worldvolume geometries, ending at the AdS5 boundary along a one-dimensional contour. We first compute the correlation functions of protected scalar insertions from supersymmetric localization, and obtain a representation in terms of multiple integrals that are similar to the eigenvalue integrals of the random matrix, but with important differences. Using ideas from the Fermi Gas formalism and the Clustering method, we evaluate their large N limit exactly as a function of the ’t Hooft coupling. The results are given by simple integrals of polynomials that resemble the Q-functions of the Quantum Spectral Curve, with integration measures depending on the number of insertions. Next, we study the correlation functions of fluctuations on the probe D3 and D5 branes in AdS. We compute a selection of three- and four-point functions from perturbation theory on the D-branes, and show that they agree with the results of localization when restricted to supersymmetric kinematics. We also explain how the difference of the internal geometries of the D3 and D5 branes manifests itself in the localization computation.
