The property of maximal transcendentality in the N=4 Supersymmetric Yang-Mills
A. V. Kotikov
TL;DR
This work investigates maximal transcendentality in $N=4$ SYM by focusing on the universal anomalous dimension $\gamma_{uni}(j)$ for twist-2 Wilson operators. It leverages the deep connection between BFKL and DGLAP dynamics, the integrable structure of the theory, and the Beisert-Eden-Staudacher framework to derive $\gamma_{uni}(j)$ up to four loops (and partial five-loop insights) using a combination of QCD results, master-integral techniques, and wrapping corrections. Detailed analyses of the limits $j\to 1$, $j\to 4$, and $j\to \infty$ illuminate the small-, Konishi-, and large-$j$ behavior, while AdS/CFT resummation and BES equations link weak- and strong-coupling regimes. The results provide strong tests for integrability-based approaches and support the consistent picture of scaling in the AdS/CFT correspondence.
Abstract
We present results for the universal anomalous dimension γ_{uni}(j) of Wilson twist-2 operators in the N=4 Supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in the first four orders of perturbation theory.
