Giant graviton integrated correlators at finite coupling and all orders in $1/N$
Abstract
We study the giant graviton integrated correlator in SU super Yang-Mills at finite complexified coupling . Despite the formidable complexity arising from the heavy nature of the operators considered, the large- expansion simplifies dramatically and exhibits manifest modular invariance. At each order in , the expansion coefficients are linear combinations of non-holomorphic Eisenstein series thus capturing the full spectrum of perturbative and non-perturbative effects in the Yang-Mills coupling. Furthermore, we find additional contributions which are modular functions exponentially suppressed in . In the 't Hooft limit, this yields an all-orders result in the expansion at arbitrary coupling , extending beyond prior results of leading orders. For the U theory, we obtain a closed-form expression valid for all and , and show that the coupling-dependent sector of the large- expansion is universal between SU and U to all orders. Crucially, we exploit the integrated correlator constraints and determine the giant graviton correlator itself to two-loop order at finite , previously only accessible in the planar limit.
