We reexamine the problem of operator mixing in N = 4 SYM. Particular attention is paid to the correct definition of composite gauge invariant local operators, which is necessary for the computation of their anomalous dimensions beyond…

The supersymmetry transformation relating the Konishi operator to its lowest descendant in the 10 of SU(4) is not manifest in the N=1 formulation of the theory but rather uses an equation of motion. On the classical level one finds one…

In the context of the superconformal N=4 SYM theory the Konishi anomaly can be viewed as the descendant $K_{10}$ of the Konishi multiplet in the 10 of SU(4), carrying the anomalous dimension of the multiplet. Another descendant $O_{10}$…

Implications of N=4 superconformal symmetry on Berenstein-Maldacena-Nastase (BMN) operators with two charge defects are studied both at finite charge J and in the BMN limit. We find that all of these belong to a single long supermultiplet…

The mixings between BMN operators with two scalar impurities and those with a scalar fermion pair are discussed to the lowest order at planar level. For this purpose, matrix model effective vertices are calculated to O(g^3). All the mixing…

We study the anomalous dimensions for scalar operators for a three-dimensional Chern-Simons theory recently proposed in arXiv:0806.1218. We show that the mixing matrix at two-loop order is that for an integrable Hamiltonian of an SU(4) spin…

We propose a mechanism for calculating anomalous dimensions of higher-spin twist-two operators in N=4 SYM. We consider the ratio of the two-point functions of the operators and of their superconformal descendants or, alternatively, of the…

We consider a BMN operator with one scalar, phi, and one vector, D_{m}Z, impurity field and compute the anomalous dimension both at planar and torus levels. This "mixed" operator corresponds to a string state with two creation operators…

We compute the three-loop anomalous dimension of the BMN operators with charges J=0 (the Konishi multiplet) and J=1 in N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory. We employ a method which effectively reduces the calculation to two loops. Instead of using…

Using on-shell methods, we present a new perturbative non-renormalization theorem for operator mixing in massless four-dimensional quantum field theories. By examining how unitarity cuts of form factors encode anomalous dimensions we show…
