چکیده

The relation between the dilatation operator of N = 4 Yang-Mills theory and integrable spin chains makes it possible to compute the one-loop anomalous dimensions of all operators in the theory. In this paper we show how to apply the technology of integrable spin chains to the calculation of Yang-Mills correlation functions by expressing them in terms of matrix elements of spin operators on the corresponding spin chain. We illustrate this method with several examples in the SU(2) sector described by the XXX1/2 chain.

Open Spin Chains in Super Yang-Mills at Higher Loops: Some Potential Problems with Integrability

The super Yang-Mills duals of open strings attached to maximal giant gravitons are studied in perturbation theory. It is shown that non-BPS baryonic excitations of the gauge theory can be studied within the paradigm of open quantum spin chains even beyond the leading order in perturbation theory. The open spin chain describing the two loop mixing of non-BPS giant gravitons charged under an su(2...

Towards Baxter equation in supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories

We perform an explicit two-loop calculation of the dilatation operator acting on single trace Wilson operators built from holomorphic scalar fields and an arbitrary number of covariant derivatives in N = 2 and N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories. We demonstrate that its eigenspectrum exhibits double degeneracy of opposite parity eigenstates which suggests that the two-loop dilatation opera...

N = 2 Supersymmetric Qcd and Integrable Spin Chains: Rational Case N F < 2n C

The form of the spectral curve for 4d N = 2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with matter fields in the fundamental representation of the gauge group suggests that its 1d integrable counterpart should be looked for among (inhomogeneous) sl(2) spin chains with the length of the chain being equal to the number of colours Nc. For N f < 2Nc the relevant spin chain is the simplest XXX-model, and this...

Quantum Group Uq(sl(2)) Symmetry and Explicit Evaluation of the One-Point Functions of the Integrable Spin-1 XXZ Chain

We show some symmetry relations among the correlation functions of the integrable higher-spin XXX and XXZ spin chains, where we explicitly evaluate the multiple integrals representing the one-point functions in the spin-1 case. We review the multipleintegral representations of correlation functions for the integrable higher-spin XXZ chains derived in a region of the massless regime including th...

The N = 4 SYM Integrable Super Spin Chain

Recently it was established that the one-loop planar dilatation generator of N = 4 Super Yang-Mills theory may be identified, in some restricted cases, with the Hamiltonians of various integrable quantum spin chains. In particular Minahan and Zarembo established that the restriction to scalar operators leads to an integrable vector so(6) chain, while recent work in QCD suggested that restrictin...
