Two-point correlators in N=2 gauge theories

We consider two-point correlators in SU(N) gauge theories on R4 with N=2 supersymmetry and Nf massless hypermultiplets in the fundamental representation. Using localization on S4, we compute the leading perturbative corrections to the two-point functions of chiral/anti-chiral operators made of scala...
