Reconstruct the full supersymmetric four-point correlator

Determine the contact-term contribution \(\mathbf{B}^{I_1 I_2 I_3 I_4}\) needed to remove the AdS5 contact-diagram ambiguities and fully reconstruct the \(\mathcal{N}=1\) supersymmetric four-point correlator from its exchange residues.

Background

The N=1\mathcal{N}=1 super-Yang–Mills four-point super-correlator is fixed in the paper only through its double residues in the ss- and tt-channels. An undetermined term BI1I2I3I4\mathbf{B}^{I_1 I_2 I_3 I_4} has vanishing double residues in those channels but may contain single-channel poles and contact contributions. Fixing this term is therefore necessary for a complete correlator rather than merely its exchange part.

References

A correct choice of \mathbf{B}{I_1 I_2 I_3 I_4} should fix all these ambiguities, enabling a full reconstruction of the correlator. We leave a more detailed analysis of the full correlator to a future work.
