The D1-D5 system is believed to have an `orbifold point' in its moduli space where its low energy theory is a N=4 supersymmetric sigma model with target space M^N/S^N, where M is T^4 or K3. We study correlation functions of chiral operators…

Certain two and three point functions of gauge invariant primary operators of ${\cal N}=4$ SYM are computed in ${\cal N}=1$ superspace keeping all the $\th$-components. This allows one to read off many component descendent correlators. Our…
