Wilson loops in N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 SO(N) SYM and D-branes in AdS5 × ℝℙ5

Abstract We study the half-BPS circular Wilson loop in N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 super Yang-Mills with orthogonal gauge group. By supersymmetric localization, its expectation value can be computed exactly from a matrix integral over the Lie algebra of SO(N). We focus on the large N limit and present s...
