One-loop non-planar anomalous dimensions in super Yang-Mills theory

Abstract We consider non-planar one-loop anomalous dimensions in maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and its marginally deformed analogues. Using the basis of Bethe states, we compute matrix elements of the dilatation operator and find compact expressions in terms of off-shell scalar products...

Description
Summary:Abstract We consider non-planar one-loop anomalous dimensions in maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and its marginally deformed analogues. Using the basis of Bethe states, we compute matrix elements of the dilatation operator and find compact expressions in terms of off-shell scalar products and hexagon-like functions. We then use non-degenerate quantum-mechanical perturbation theory to compute the leading 1/N 2 corrections to operator dimensions and as an example compute the large R-charge limit for two-excitation states through subleading order in the R-charge. Finally, we numerically study the distribution of level spacings for these theories and show that they transition from the Poisson distribution for integrable systems at infinite N to the GOE Wigner-Dyson distribution for quantum chaotic systems at finite N.
