We demonstrate that the planar real-$\beta$-deformed Super-Yang--Mills theory possesses an infinitely-dimensional Yangian symmetry algebra and thus is classically integrable. This is achieved by the introduction of the twisted coproduct…
We compute the imaginary part of scalar four-point functions in the AdS/CFT correspondence relevant to N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. Unitarity of the AdS supergravity demands that the imaginary parts of the correlation functions factorize…
