On Large N Solution of Gaiotto-Tomasiello Theory

Abstract

The planar solution is discussed for an N=3 Chern-Simons-matter theory constructed recently by Gaiotto and Tomasiello. The planar resolvent is obtained in terms of contour integrals. If the sum of two Chern-Simons levels k1,k2 is small, the expectation value of a supersymmetric Wilson loop grows exponentially with the total 't Hooft coupling, as is expected from AdS/CFT correspondence. If one of the Chern-Simons levels, say k2, is taken to infinity, for which one of the 't Hooft coupling constants becomes zero, then the exponential behavior disappears.
