Asymptotic Bethe Ansatz on the GKP vacuum as a defect spin chain: Scattering, particles and minimal area Wilson loops

Moving from Beisert–Staudacher equations, the complete set of Asymptotic Bethe Ansatz equations and S-matrix for the excitations over the GKP vacuum is found. The resulting model on this new vacuum is an integrable spin chain of length R=2ln⁡s (s=spin) with particle rapidities as inhomogeneities, tw...
