Gluing Quantum Spectral Curves: a two-copy osp (4|2) construction

A bstract We propose a Quantum Spectral Curve for planar string theory on AdS 3 ×S 3 ×S 3 ×S 1 supported by pure Ramond-Ramond flux. Our proposal is built on symmetry considerations and integrability-based functional relations. To test our construction, we consider the large volume limit and successfully reproduce the crossing equations and the correct structure of the Bethe equations found in the literature. In a symmetric subsector, we find agreement with previously known results and furthermore extend the Asymptotic Bethe Ansatz to include massless modes. Beyond this sector, we identify an interesting puzzle regarding the compatibility of crossing equations with braiding unitarity for individual dressing phases, which warrants further investigation and may require additional physical insights or novel structures not previously encountered in related systems. As we expect the QSC to be exact in the planar limit, our proposal may open the way for non-perturbative analysis of this holographic system.
