We study four-point correlation functions of half-BPS operators of arbitrary weight for all dimensions d=3,4,5,6 where superconformal theories exist. Using harmonic superspace techniques, we derive the superconformal Ward identities for these correlators and present them in a universal form. We then solve these identities, employing Jack polynomial expansions. We show that the general solution is parameterized by a set of arbitrary two-variable functions, with the exception of the case d=4, where in addition functions of a single variable appear. We also discuss the operator product expansion using recent results on conformal partial wave amplitudes in arbitrary dimension.

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 integrated c orrelators by comparing their asymptotic expansions with simple data obtained from integrability. We extract OPE coefficients and find a prediction for the triple wrapping correction of the hexagon form factors, which contributes already at the five-loop order.

We consider a double OPE limit of the planar four-point function of stress tensor multiplets in N = 4 SYM theory. Loop integrands for this correlator have been constructed to very high order, but the corresponding integrals are explicitly known only up to three loops. Fortunately, the double coincidence limit of the four-loop integrals can be found by the method of expansion by regions, which reduces the problem of computing the four-point integrals to the evaluation of a large set of massless propagator integrals. These can in turn be evaluated by IBP reduction. The OPE limit of the stress tensor four-point function allows us to extract the (square of the) three-point couplings between two stress tensor multiplets and one twist two operator in the 20 of SU(4). The latest available IBP software accomplishes this task up to and including spin 8. With the data obtained we hope to further the development of the recent integrable systems picture for correlation functions.
Using the pure spinor formalism for the superstring in an $AdS_5times S^5$ background, a simple expression is found for half-BPS vertex operators. At large radius, these vertex operators reduce to the usual supergravity vertex operators in a flat bac kground. And at small radius, there is a natural conjecture for generalizing these vertex operators to non-BPS states.

We discuss a general procedure to obtain 1/2 BPS partition functions for generic N=1 quiver gauge theories. These functions count the gauge invariant operators (bosonic and fermionic), charged under all the global symmetries (mesonic and baryonic), i n the chiral ring of a given quiver gauge theory. In particular we discuss the inclusion of the spinor degrees of freedom in the partition functions.
We consider a semiclassical (large string tension ~ lambda^1/2) limit of 4-point correlator of two heavy vertex operators with large quantum numbers and two light operators. It can be written in a factorized form as a product of two 3-point functions , each given by the integrated light vertex operator on the classical string solution determined by the heavy operators. We check consistency of this factorization in the case of a correlator with two dilatons as light operators. We study in detail the example when all 4 operators are chiral primary scalars, two of which carry large charge J of order of string tension. In the large J limit this correlator is nearly extremal. Its semiclassical expression is, indeed, found to be consistent with the general protected form expected for an extremal correlator. We demonstrate explicitly that our semiclassical result matches the large J limit of the known free N=4 SYM correlator for 4 chiral primary operators with charges J,-J,2,-2; we also compare it with an existing supergravity expression. As an example of a 4-point function with two non-BPS heavy operators, we consider the case when the latter are representing folded spinning with large AdS spin and two light states being chiral primary scalars.
