The dilatation operator of N= 4 super Yang–Mills theory and integrability

N Beisert - Physics Reports, 2004 - Elsevier
In this work we review recent progress in four-dimensional conformal quantum field theories
and scaling dimensions of local operators. Here we consider the example of maximally …

The SAGEX review on scattering amplitudes Chapter 8: Half BPS correlators

P Heslop - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
Half BPS correlators in $\mathcal {N}= 4$ super Yang–Mills theory are key quantities both in
the AdS/CFT correspondence as well as in scattering amplitudes research. They are dual at …

Supersymmetric gauge theories and the AdS/CFT correspondence

E D'HOKER, DZ Freedman - Strings, Branes and Extra Dimensions …, 2004 - World Scientific
In these lecture notes we first assemble the basic ingredients of supersymmetric gauge
theories (particularly N= 4 super-Yang-Mills theory), supergravity, and superstring theory …

The dilatation operator of conformal N= 4 super-Yang–Mills theory

N Beisert, C Kristjansen, M Staudacher - Nuclear Physics B, 2003 - Elsevier
We argue that existing methods for the perturbative computation of anomalous dimensions
and the disentanglement of mixing in N= 4 gauge theory can be considerably simplified …

The complete one-loop dilatation operator of N= 4 super-Yang–Mills theory

N Beisert - Nuclear Physics B, 2004 - Elsevier
We continue the analysis of hep-th/0303060 in the one-loop sector and present the
complete psu (2, 2| 4) dilatation operator of N= 4 super-Yang–Mills theory. This operator …

Four-loop planar amplitude and cusp anomalous dimension in maximally supersymmetric<? format?> Yang-Mills theory

Z Bern, M Czakon, LJ Dixon, DA Kosower… - Physical Review D …, 2007 - APS
We present an expression for the leading-color (planar) four-loop four-point amplitude of N=
4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in 4-2 ϵ dimensions, in terms of eight separate …

Supersymmetric wilson loops

K Zarembo - Nuclear Physics B, 2002 - Elsevier
I construct 1/16, 1/8 and 1/4 BPS Wilson loops in N= 4 supersymmetric Yang–Mills theory
and argue that expectation values of 1/4 BPS loops do not receive quantum corrections. At …

From correlation functions to Wilson loops

LF Alday, B Eden, GP Korchemsky… - Journal of High Energy …, 2011 - Springer
We start with an n− point correlation function in a conformal gauge theory. We show that a
special limit produces a polygonal Wilson loop with n sides. The limit takes the n points …

Partial non-renormalisation of the stress-tensor four-point function in N= 4 SYM and AdS/CFT

B Eden, AC Petkou, C Schubert, E Sokatchev - Nuclear Physics B, 2001 - Elsevier
We show that, although the correlator of four stress-tensor multiplets in N= 4 SYM is known
to have radiative corrections, certain linear combinations of its components are protected …

[HTML][HTML] From correlation functions to event shapes

AV Belitsky, S Hohenegger, GP Korchemsky… - Nuclear Physics B, 2014 - Elsevier
We present a new approach to computing event shape distributions or, more precisely,
charge flow correlations in a generic conformal field theory (CFT). These infrared finite …
