Quantum dispersion of giant magnons II
We perform a first principles semi-classical computation of the one-loop corrections to the dispersion relation and -matrix of giant magnons in string theory. The results agree exactly with expectations based on the strong coupling expansion of the exact Asymptotic Bethe Ansatz equations. In particular we reproduce the Hernandez-Lopez term in the dressing phase.
