We consider the case of coherent gauge invariant operators in the SU(3) and SO(4) sectors. We argue that in many cases, these sectors can be closed in the thermodynamic limit, even at higher loops. We then use a modification of the Bethe…
The leading order coefficients of the beta-function of QCD are computed in a large N_f expansion. They are in agreement with the three loop MSbar calculation. The method involves computing the anomalous dimension of the operator (G^2_{mu…

We consider twist $J$ operators with spin $S$ in the $sl(2)$ sector of $\mathcal N=4$ SYM. The small spin expansion of their anomalous dimension defines the so-called slope functions. Much is known about the linear term, but the study of…
