Two-loop five-point integrals: light, heavy and large-spin correlators

A bstract We evaluated all two-loop conformal integrals appearing in five-point correlation functions of protected operators of $$ \mathcal{N} $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mi>N</mml:mi> </mml:math> = 4 Super Yang-Mills in several kinematical regimes. Starting from the correlation function of the lightest operators of the theory, we were able to extract structure constants of up to two spinning operators for small and large values of spin and the tensor structure label (polarization).

Abstract

A bstract We evaluated all two-loop conformal integrals appearing in five-point correlation functions of protected operators of $$ \mathcal{N} $$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mi>N</mml:mi> </mml:math> = 4 Super Yang-Mills in several kinematical regimes. Starting from the correlation function of the lightest operators of the theory, we were able to extract structure constants of up to two spinning operators for small and large values of spin and the tensor structure label (polarization). We conjectured an universal all-loop behaviour for the large-spin, small-polarization structure constants and comment on the subtleties of analytically continuing it from finite to large spin. We also consider correlation functions of heavier operators that get factorized in the more fundamental object called decagon. We fixed this object at two loops in general kinematics and studied its physical properties under OPE and null limits.
