We obtain all planar four-point correlators of half-BPS operators in $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM up to five loops. The ansatz for the integrand is fixed partially by imposing light-cone OPE relations between different correlators. We then fix the…

We study the behaviour of the conformal block expansions of scalar fivepoint Lorentzian conformal correlators in the limit where multiple cross ratios approach zero. Since this limit is controlled by intermediate operators with large spin,…

The space of n-point correlation functions, for all possible time-orderings of operators, can be computed by a non-trivial path integral contour, which depends on how many time-ordering violations are present in the correlator. These…
