    Abstract

    摘要

    In this paper, we demonstrate that locally, the \alpha' expansion of a string propagating in AdS can be summed into a closed expression,where the \alpha' dependence is manifested. The T-dual of this sum exactly matches the expression controlling all genus expansion in the Goparkumar-Vafa formula, which in turn also matches the loop expansion of the Chern-Simons gauge theory. We therefore find an exact correspondence between the \alpha' expansion for a string moving in AdS and the genus expansion of a string propagating in four dimensional flat spacetime. We are then able to give a closed form of the \alpha' expansion for all values of \alpha'^{1/2}/R_{AdS}. Moreover, the correspondence makes it possible to conjecture the exact g_s dependence of the strongly coupled theories.
