Description

We discuss results and quantum properties of a family of generalized fermionic Wilson loops in ABJ(M) theory. We propose an all-order prescription for computing the Bremsstrahlung function associated to the 1/2-BPS cusp in terms of this family of WL. The validity of this prescription is a non-trivial test of the AdS4/CFT3 correspondence.
