We study three point functions of half BPS operators in $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory focusing on correltors of two of the operators with dimension of order $\Delta\sim N^2$ and a light single trace operator. These describe vacuum…

We compute the leading-color (planar) three-loop four-point amplitude of N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in 4 - 2 epsilon dimensions, as a Laurent expansion about epsilon = 0 including the finite terms. The amplitude was constructed…

We derive a recursion relation for loop-level scattering amplitudes of Lagrangian field theories that generalises the tree-level Berends-Giele recursion relation in Yang-Mills theory. The origin of this recursion relation is the homological…
