Dissecting supergraviton six-point function with lightcone limits and chiral algebra

A bstract We develop a bootstrap strategy to obtain the six-point function of supergravitons in AdS 5 × S 5 from symmetry constraints and consistency conditions. Compared to previous bootstrap algorithms, a novel feature is the use of lightcone OPEs together with the chiral algebra constraint. This makes it possible to isolate different parts of the correlator and fix them separately. Our strategy allows us to gain a refined understanding of the power of different bootstrap constraints, which is also useful for computing more general correlators.
