We consider higher-point generalizations of the "octagon" large-charge four-point function in planar N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. These n-point polygon correlators are defined as ten-dimensional null limits of generating functions of…

We compute a set of correlation functions of operator insertions on the 1/8 BPS Wilson loop in $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM by employing supersymmetric localization, OPE and the Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization. These correlators exhibit a simple…

Exact results in supersymmetric Chern-Simons and N=2 Yang-Mills theories can be used to examine the quantum behavior of observables and the structure of the perturbative series. For the U(2) x U(2) ABJM model, we determine the asymptotic…

We revisit the analysis of the integrated 2-point functions of local operators with a $\frac{1}{2}$-BPS Wilson line in $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM. After including suitable parity-odd terms in the parametrization of the defect correlators, we are…

We consider correlation functions of two maximal giant gravitons and two light $\frac{1}{2}$-BPS operators in 4d $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM. Viewed as two-point correlators in the presence of a zero dimensional defect, they can be completely fixed…
