We introduce the impact-parameter representation for conformal field theory correlators of the form A ~ < O_1 O_2 O_1 O_2 >. This representation is appropriate in the eikonal kinematical regime, and approximates the conformal partial-wave…

The present work deals with two different but subtilely related kinds of conformal mappings: Weyl rescaling in $d>2$ dimensional spaces and SO(2,d) transformations. We express how the difference between the two can be compensated by…
We review the quantum spectral curve (QSC) formalism for anomalous dimensions of planar ${\cal\ N}=4$ SYM, including its $\gamma$-deformation. Leaving aside its derivation, we concentrate on formulation of the "final product" in its most…
