Schlur polynomials, restricted Schur polynomials and the AdS/CFT correspondence

In this thesis we introduce novel technology pertaining to the calculation of certain classes of correlation functions in the half BPS, near BPS and multimatrix sectors (particularly the SU(2) sector) of N = 4 Super Yang-Mills (SYM) theory using the Schur polynomial and restricted Schur polynomia...
