Journal of Higher Energy Physics 2009(4): 066.1029-8479http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:HUL.InstRepos:6907388In this note we study spin chain operators in the \(\mathcal{N}\)=6 Chern-Simons-matter theory recently proposed by Aharony, Bergman, Jafferis and Maldacena to be dual to type IIA string theory in \(AdS_4\) x \(\mathbb{CP}^3\). We study the two-loop dilatation operator in the gauge theory, and compare to the Penrose limit on the string theory side.en-USAdS-CFT correspondenceChern-Simons theoriesdS-CFT correspondencepenrose limit and pp-wave backgroundJournal Article2012-01-0610.1088/1126-6708/2009/04/066
