We calculate form factors of half-BPS operators in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory at tree level and one loop using novel applications of recursion relations and unitarity. In particular, we determine the expression of the one-loop form factors…

We compute at strong coupling the large N correlation functions of supersymmetric Wilson loops in large representations of the gauge group with local operators of N=4 super Yang-Mills. The gauge theory computation of these correlators is…

We compute the large N limit of Wilson loop expectation values for a broad class of N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories defined on a general class of background three-manifolds M_3, diffeomorphic to S^3. We find a simple closed formula which…

Wilson line operators in the rank $k$ totally symmetric tensor representation of ${\cal N}=4$ $U(N)$ sypersymmetric Yang-Mills theories are expected to be realized as D3-branes expanded in $AdS_5$. Although there is a mismatch between the…

This paper considers the large N limit of Wilson loops for the two-dimensional Euclidean Yang-Mills measure on all orientable compact surfaces of genus larger or equal to one, with a structure group given by a classical compact matrix Lie…

In the AdS/CFT correspondence, an AdS_2 x S^2 D3-brane with electric flux in AdS_5 x S^5 spacetime corresponds to a circular Wilson loop in the symmetric representation or a multiply wound one in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. In order to…

We investigate elliptical Wilson loops in ${\cal N}=4$ Super Yang--Mills theory at weak and strong coupling for small values of the eccentricity. We obtain analytical results for the vacuum expectation value of the Wilson loop in the form…

We review Wilson loops in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with emphasis on the exact results. The implications are discussed in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence.

Planar L-loop maximally helicity violating amplitudes in N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory are believed to possess the remarkable property of satisfying iteration relations in L. We propose a simple new method for studying the…

We study the maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on $S^d$ using supersymmetric localisation and holography. We argue that the analytic continuation in dimension to $d=1$ yields a Euclidean version of the BMN matrix quantum mechanics.…

The derivation of the explicit formula for the vacuum expectation value of the Wilson loop functional for an arbitrary gauge group on an arbitrary orientable two-dimensional manifold is considered both in the continuum case and on the…

A rectangular Wilson loop centered at the origin, with sides parallel to space and time directions and length $2L$ and $2T$ respectively, is perturbatively evaluated ${\cal O}(g^4)$ in Feynman gauge for Yang--Mills theory in $1+(D-1)$…

In this paper we study Wilson loops in various representations for finite and large values of the color gauge group for supersymmetric ${\cal N}=4$ gauge theories. We also compute correlators of Wilson loops in different representations and…

We employ the Transformer to learn patterns in two-dimensional lattice Yang-Mills theory. Specifically, we represent both Wilson loops and their expectation values as tokenized sequences. Taking the shape of Wilson loops as input, the model…

We consider the expectation value of a Polyakov loop in 3d SU(2) lattice Yang--Mills theory and transform it to the dual representation in terms of sums over spins. The spin dependence of the amplitudes is computed explicitly by a graphical…

The Schwinger-Dyson equations of the Makeenko-Migdal type, when supplemented with some simple equations as consequence of supersymmetry, form a closed set of equations for Wilson loops and related quantities in the two dimensional…

We use supersymmetric localization to study probes of four dimensional Lagrangian N=2 superconformal field theories. We first derive a unique equation for the eigenvalue density of these theories. We observe that these theories have a…

In the planar N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, the conformal symmetry constrains multi-loop n-edged Wilson loops to be given in terms of the one-loop n-edged Wilson loop, augmented, for n greater than 6, by a function of conformally…

We compute the expectation value of the circular Wilson loop in N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with N_f=2N hypermultiplets. Our results indicate that the string tension in the dual string theory scales as the logarithm of the 't Hooft…

Within the AdS/CFT correspondence we use multicentre D3-brane metrics to investigate Wilson loops and compute the associated heavy quark-antiquark potentials for the strongly coupled SU(N) super-Yang-Mills gauge theory, when the gauge…
