We give a realization of the Beisert, Eden and Staudacher equation for the planar N=4 supersymetric gauge theory whichseems to be particularly useful to study the strong coupling limit. We use a linearized version of the BES equation as two…
We continue the investigation of two-loop string corrections to the energy of a folded string with a spin S in AdS_5 and an angular momentum J in S^5, in the scaling limit of large J and S with ell=pi J/(lambda^(1/2) ln S)=fixed. We compute…
We revisit the computation of the 2-loop correction to the energy of a folded spinning string in AdS_5 with an angular momentum J in S^5 in the scaling limit log S, J >>1 with J / log S fixed. This correction gives the third term in the…

We considered folded spinning string in AdS_5 x S^5 background dual to the Tr(D^S Phi^J) operators of N=4 SYM theory. In the limit S,J-> \infty and l=pi J/\sqrt\lambda\log S fixed we compute the string energy with the 2-loop accuracy in the…
We consider twist $J$ operators with spin $S$ in the $sl(2)$ sector of $\mathcal N=4$ SYM. The small spin expansion of their anomalous dimension defines the so-called slope functions. Much is known about the linear term, but the study of…
At present, the gauge coupling $\beta$-function in the Standard Model (SM) is known up to four-loop order. As most SM calculations, dimensional regularization was employed. Despite its striking success, other regularization schemes have…
In pure SU(2) gauge theory we compute the two-loop coefficient in the relation between the lattice bare coupling and the running coupling defined through the Schroedinger functional. This result is required to relate the latter to the…
We initiate the computation of the 2-loop quantum AdS_5 x S^5 string corrections on the example of a certain string configuration in S^5 related by an analytic continuation to a folded rotating string in AdS_5 in the ``long string'' limit.…
The exact localization result for the expectation value of the $1\over 2$ BPS circular Wilson loop in ${\cal N}=4$ SYM theory is given in the planar limit by the famous Bessel function expression: $\langle W\rangle = {2N\over \sqrt \lambda…
Using the quantum string Bethe ansatz we derive the one-loop energy of a folded string rotating with angular momenta (S,J) in AdS_3 x S^1 inside AdS_5 x S^5 in the limit 1 << J << S, z=\lambda^(1/2) log(S/J) /(\pi J) fixed. The one-loop…
We perform the two loop level renormalization of quantum gravity in $2+\epsilon$ dimensions. We work in the background gauge whose manifest covariance enables us to use the short distance expansion of the Green's functions. We explicitly…
Two-loop Feynman integrals of the massive $\phi^4_d$ field theory are explicitly obtained for generic space dimensions $d$. Corresponding renormalization-group functions are expressed in a compact form in terms of Gauss hypergeometric…
We study a family of circular BPS Wilson loops in N=6 super Chern-Simons-matter theories, generalizing the usual 1/2-BPS circle. The scalar and fermionic couplings depend on two deformation parameters and these operators can be considered…
