In the high spin limit the minimal anomalous dimension of (fixed) twist operators in the $sl(2)$ sector of planar ${\cal N}=4$ Super Yang-Mills theory expands as $\gamma(g,s,L)=f(g) \ln s + f_{sl}(g,L) + \sum \limits_{n=1}^\infty…
We study the large N anomalous dimensions of operators in a Leigh-Strassler deformation of N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. The operators that we study have a bare dimension of order N (so that the large N limit is not captured by planar…
In this paper, we examine scaling dimensions at small spin in the so-called sl(2) sector of the planar maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. We find that the Bethe ansatz equations, which control the spectrum of scaling dimensions,…
Correlators of Wilson loop operators with O_4=Tr(F_{\mu\nu}^2+...) are computed in N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory using the AdS/CFT correspondence. The results are compared with the leading order perturbative computations. As a consequence of…
We present the planar four-loop anomalous dimension of the composite operator tr(phi[Z,phi]Z) in the flavour SU(2) sector of the N=4 SYM theory. At this loop order wrapping interactions are present: they give rise to contributions…
We study insertions of composite operators into Wilson loops in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions. The loops follow a circular or straight path and the composite insertions transform in the adjoint representation of…
The N=4, d=4 Yang-Mills conformal supersymmetry exhibits a very simple sub-sector described by four differential operators. The invariance under this subalgebra is big enough to determine the N=4 theory. Some attempts are done to interpret…
