Abstract
We compute the anomalous dimension for a short single-trace operator in planar ABJM theory at intermediate coupling. This is done by solving numerically the set of Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz equations which are expected to describe the exact spectrum of the theory. We implement a truncation method which significantly reduces the number of integral equations to be solved and improves numerical efficiency. Results are obtained for a range of ’t Hooft coupling λ corresponding to 0 ≤ h(λ) ≤ 1, where h(λ) is the interpolating function of the AdS4/CFT3 Bethe equations.
