We discuss a candidate for a minimal interacting 4-dimensional N=1 superconformal field theory (SCFT). The model contains a chiral primary operator u satisfying the chiral ring relation u^2=0, and its scaling dimension is \Delta(u)=1.5. The…

Integrated correlation functions in $\mathcal{N}=4$ supersymmetric Yang--Mills theory with gauge group $SU(N)$ can be expressed in terms of the localised $S^4$ partition function, $Z_N$, deformed by a mass $m$. Two such cases are…

We construct and thoroughly study a new integrable example of the AdS/CFT correspondence with Schr\"{o}dinger symmetry. On the gravity side, the supergravity solution depends on two parameters and is obtained by marginally deforming the…
