Abstract
JHEP 0911:064,2009 The leading term for the energy of a bound state of k-quarks and k-antiquarks
is proportional to its separation L. These k-string configurations have a
Luscher term associated with their quantum fluctuations which is typically a
1/L correction to the energy. We review the status of tensions and Luscher
terms in the context of lattice gauge theory, Hamiltonian methods, and
gauge/gravity correspondence. Furthermore we explore how different
representations of the k-string manifest themselves in the gauge/gravity
duality. We calculate the Luscher term for a strongly coupled SU(N) gauge
theory in (2+1) dimensions using the gauge/gravity correspondence. Namely, we
compute one-loop corrections to a probe D4-brane embedded in the Cvetic,
Gibbons, Lu, and Pope supergravity background. We investigate quantum
fluctuations of both the bosonic and the fermionic sectors.
