Three-point functions of analytic (chiral primary) operators in N=4 Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions are calculated using the harmonic superspace formulation of this theory. In the case of the energy-momentum tensor multiplet anomaly…
The first paper of this series introduced objects (elements of twisted relative cohomology) that are Poincar\'e dual to Feynman integrals. We show how to use the pairing between these spaces -- an algebraic invariant called the intersection…
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…

We study the correlation function of two circular Wilson loops at strong coupling in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. Using the AdS/CFT correspondence, the problem maps to finding the minimal surface between two circles defined on the boundary…
We consider `twin supergravities' - pairs of supergravities with $\mathcal{N}_+$ and $\mathcal{N}_-$ supersymmetries, $\mathcal{N}_+>\mathcal{N}_-$, with identical bosonic sectors - in the context of tensoring super Yang-Mills multiplets.…
We evaluate the twisted partition function of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N} = 1$ supersymmetric Yang--Mills theory reduced to a point for all simple gauge groups. The partition function is expressed as a sum of residues. The types of…
