abstract

The link between BFKL physics and twist-two operators involves an analytical continuation in the spin of the operators away from the physical even integer values. Typically this is done only after obtaining an analytical result for integer spin through nested harmonic sums. In this paper we propose analyticity conditions for the solution of Baxter equation which would work directly for any value of complex spin and reproduce results from the analytical continuation of harmonic sums. We carry out explicit contructions up to 2-loop level. These nonstandard solutions of the Baxter equation have rather surprising asymptotics. We hope that these analyticity conditions may be used for incorporating them into the exact TBA/FiNLIE/QSC approaches valid at any coupling.

Regge Trajectories of N=4 SYM Part I: General Asymptotic Baxter-Bethe Ansatz

hep-th · 2025-07-21 · conditional · novelty 6.0

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 supports a conjectured strong-coupling intercept spectrum.
