abstract:

We will show how to obtain half-BPS four-point correlation functions in N=4 SYM at up to 3 loops using symmetries, analytic properties the Wilson loop/correlator duality, planarity and some minimal knowledge of the OPE structure relating four-point correlators of different charges. These can be used to verify recent predictions for OPE coefficients arising from integrability.
