چکیده

Three-point functions of analytic (chiral primary) operators in N = 4 Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions are calculated using the harmonic superspace formulation of this theory. In the case of the energy-momentum tensor multiplet anomaly considerations determine the coefficient. Analyticity in N = 2 harmonic superspace is explicitly checked in a two-loop calculation.

Superprotected n - point correlation functions of local operators in N = 4 super Yang - Mills

In this paper we study the n-point correlation functions of two different families of local gauge invariant operators in N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. The main idea is to consider the correlation functions of operators which all share a number of supersymmetries irrespective of their relative locations. We achieve this by equipping the operators with explicit space-time dependence. We...

Correlation functions of chiral primary operators in perturbative N = 4 SYM

We discuss recent results on two-point functions of chiral primary operators in N = 4 SU(N) supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. Our results give further support to the belief that such correlators are not renormalized to all orders in g and to all orders in N. T he aim of this talk is to present recent results [1] on the explicit computation of two-point functions of chiral operators TrΦ 3 in N =...

The Large N C Limit of Four-point Functions in N = 4 Super Yang-mills Theory from Anti-de Sitter Supergravity

We compute the imaginary part of scalar four-point functions in the AdS/CFT correspondence relevant to N = 4 super Yang-Mills theory. We find that unitarity of the AdS supergravity demands that the imaginary parts of the correlation functions factorize into products of lower-point functions. We include the exchange diagrams for scalars as well as gravitons and find explicit expressions for the ...

Four - point functions in N = 4 supersymmetric Yang - Mills theory at two loops

Four-point functions of gauge-invariant operators in D = 4, N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory are studied using N = 2 harmonic superspace perturbation theory. The results are expressed in terms of differential operators acting on a scalar two loop integral. The leading singular behaviour is obtained in the limit that two of the points approach one another. We find logarithmic singularities...

Nilpotent Invariants in N = 4 Sym

It is shown that there are no nilpotent invariants in N = 4 analytic superspace for n ≤ 4 points. It is argued that there is (at least) one such invariant for n = 5 points which is not invariant under U (1) Y. The consequences of these results are that the n = 2 and 3 point correlation functions of the N = 4 gauge-invariant operators which correspond to KK multiplets in AdS supergravity are giv...
