We study the correlator of concentric circular Wilson loops for arbitrary radii, spatial and internal space separations. For real values of the parameters specifying the dual string configuration, a typical Gross-Ooguri phase transition is observed. In addition, we explore some analytic continuation of a parameter $gamma$ that characterizes the internal space separation. This enables a ladder limit in which ladder resummation and string theory computations precisely agree in the strong coupling limit. Finally, we find a critical value of $gamma$ for which the correlator is supersymmetric and ladder diagrams can be exactly resummed for any value of the coupling constant.
By considering a Gaussian truncation of ${cal N}=4$ super Yang-Mills, we derive a set of Dyson equations that account for the ladder diagram contribution to connected correlators of circular Wilson loops. We consider different numbers of loops, with
A recent proposal was made for a large representation rank limit for which the expectation values of N = 4 super Yang-Mills Wilson loops are given by the exponential of the 1-loop result. We verify the validity of this exponentiation in the strong co
We study chiral deformations of ${cal N}=2$ and ${cal N}=4$ supersymmetric gauge theories obtained by turning on $tau_J ,{rm tr} , Phi^J$ interactions with $Phi$ the ${cal N}=2$ superfield. Using localization, we compute the deformed gauge theory par
After a very brief recollection of how my scientific collaboration with Ugo started, in this talk I will present some recent results obtained with localization: the deformed gauge theory partition function $Z(vectau|q)$ and the expectation value of c
We continue our study of the correlators of a recently discovered family of BPS Wilson loops in N=4 supersymmetric U(N) Yang-Mills theory. We perform explicit computations at weak coupling by means of analytical and numerical methods finding agreemen
