All three-loop four-point correlators of half-BPS operators in planar N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 SYM

Abstract: Abstract:We obtain the planar correlation function of four half-BPS operators of arbitrary weights, up to three loops. Our method exploits only elementary properties of the integrand of the planar correlator, such as its symmetries and singularity structure. This allows us to write down a general ansatz for the integrand. The coefficients in the ansatz are fixed by means of a powerful light-cone OPE relation between correlators with different weights. Our result is formulated in terms of a limited number of fu… Show more

“…There are also results in the literature for correlation functions of length-k half-BPS operators and for generic k the non-trivial non-planar corrections usually start at lower loops. At the planar level, all four-point functions of such operators are know up to five loops [60,61] while at the non-planar level correlators of four length-k operators are known up to two loops only [62,63]. It would be very interesting to compute non-planar corrections to more general four-point functions of half-BPS operators at two and higher loops.…”

“…The particular class of single-valued polylogarithms of interest here are linear combinations of polylogarithms constructed on the singularities (or 'letters') {x, 1 − x,x, 1 −x} such that they are single-valued whenx is taken to be the complex conjugate of x. They are constructed in general in [50] and appear in many contexts to discuss the perturbative contributions to the correlation functions p 1 p 2 p 3 p 4 [40,42] as well as in multi-Regge kinematics of scattering amplitudes [51,52] and Feynman integral calculations [53,54]. Since our result for the double discontinuity F…”
