Recently it was argued that the exact R charge for three dimensional N=2 supersymmetric field theories extremizes the partition function localized on S^3. In this paper we check this conjecture by computing the R charge for SU(N)_k YM CS gauge theories at large k for many representations, and we test the agreement with the perturbative results.

Using supersymmetric localization, we study the sector of chiral primary operators $({rm Tr} , phi^2 )^n$ with large $R$-charge $4n$ in $mathcal{N}=2$ four-dimensional superconformal theories in the weak coupling regime $grightarrow 0$, where $lambda equiv g^2n$ is kept fixed as $ntoinfty $, $g$ representing the gauge theory coupling(s). In this limit, correlation functions $G_{2n}$ of these operators behave in a simple way, with an asymptotic behavior of the form $G_{2n}approx F_{infty}(lambda) left(frac{lambda}{2pi e}right)^{2n} n^alpha $, modulo $O(1/n)$ corrections, with $alpha=frac{1}{2} mathrm{dim}(mathfrak{g})$ for a gauge algebra $mathfrak{g}$ and a universal function $F_{infty}(lambda)$. As a by-product we find several new formulas both for the partition function as well as for perturbative correlators in ${cal N}=2$ $mathfrak{su}(N)$ gauge theory with $2N$ fundamental hypermultiplets.
We derive exact formulae for the partition function and the expectation values of Wilson/t Hooft loops, thus directly checking their S-duality transformations. We focus on a special class of N=2 gauge theories on S^4 with fundamental matter. In parti cular we show that, for a specific choice of the masses, the matrix model integral defining the gauge theory partition function localizes around a finite set of critical points where it can be explicitly evaluated and written in terms of generalized hypergeometric functions. From the AGT perspective the gauge theory partition function, evaluated with this choice of masses, is viewed as a four point correlator involving the insertion of a degenerated field. The well known simplicity of the degenerated correlator reflects the fact that for these choices of masses only a very restrictive type of instanton configurations contributes to the gauge theory partition function.
In a {cal N}=1 superspace formulation of {cal N}=4 Yang-Mills theory we obtain the anomalous dimensions of chiral operators with large R charge J to infty keeping g^2 N/J^2 finite, to all orders of perturbation theory in the planar limit. Our result proves the conjecture that the anomalous dimensions are indeed finite in the above limit. This amounts to an exact check of the proposed duality between a sector of {cal N}=4 Yang-Mills theory with large R charge J and string theory in a pp-wave background.
We discuss reductions of general N=1 four dimensional gauge theories on S^2. The effective two dimensional theory one obtains depends on the details of the coupling of the theory to background fields, which can be translated to a choice of R-symmetry . We argue that, for special choices of R-symmetry, the resulting two dimensional theory has a natural interpretation as an N=(0,2) gauge theory. As an application of our general observations, we discuss reductions of N=1 and N=2 dualities and argue that they imply certain two dimensional dualities.

We construct a class of operators, given by Schur polynomials, in ABJM theory. By computing two point functions at finite $N$ we confirm these are diagonal for this class of operators in the free field limit. We also calculate exact three and multi p oint correlators in the zero coupling limit. Finally, we consider a particular nontrivial background produced by an operator with an $R$-charge of $O(N^2$. We show that the nonplanar corrections (which can no longer be neglected, even at large $N$) can be resummed to give a $1/(N+M)$ expansion for correlators computed in this background.
