摘要
We consider the expectation value < W > of the circular BPS Wilson loop in N = 2 superconformal SU(N) gauge theory containing a vector multiplet coupled to two hypermultiplets in rank-2 symmetric and antisymmetric representations. This theory admits a regular large N expansion, is planar-equivalent to N = 4 SYM theory and is expected to be dual to a certain orbifold/orientifold projection of AdS(5) x S-5 superstring theory. On the string theory side < W > is represented by the path integral expanded near the same AdS(2) minimal surface as in the maximally supersymmetric case. Following the string theory argument in [5], we suggest that as in the N = 4 SYM case and in the N = 2 SU(N) x SU(N) superconformal quiver theory discussed in [19], the coefficient of the leading non-planar 1/N-2 correction in < W > should have the universal lambda(3/2) scaling at large 't Hooft coupling. We confirm this prediction by starting with the localization matrix model representation for < W >. We complement the analytic derivation of the lambda(3/2) scaling by a numerical high-precision resummation and extrapolation of the weak-coupling expansion using conformal mapping improved Pade analysis.
