The near-collinear expansion of scattering amplitudes in maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory at strong coupling is governed by the dynamics of stings propagating on the five sphere. The pentagon transitions in the operator product…

Anomalous dimension and higher conserved charges in the $sl(2)$ sector of ${\cal N}=4$ SYM for generic spin $s$ and twist $L$ are described by using a novel kind of non-linear integral equation (NLIE). The latter can be derived under…

Anomalous dimensions of twist-two operators govern the scale evolution of parton distribution functions. For off-shell external states, the physical twist-two operators mix with unknown gauge-variant operators under renormalization. In this…

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 consider two four-dimensional gauge theories with gauge group $SU(N)$: the $\mathcal{N}=4$ Super Yang-Mills (SYM) theory and the $\mathcal{N}=2$ quiver gauge theory obtained as a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ orbifold of $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM. In this…

Asymptotic behavior of the anomalous dimensions of Wilson operators with high spin and twist is governed in planar N=4 SYM theory by the scaling function which coincides at strong coupling with the energy density of a two-dimensional…
