Single particle operators and their correlators in free $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 SYM

Single particle operators and their correlators in free $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 SYM

We consider a set of half-BPS operators in $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory which are appropriate for describing single-particle states of superstring theory on AdS${}_5 \times S^5$. These single-particle operators are defined to have vanishing two-point functions with all multi-trace operators and therefore correspond to admixtures of single- and multi-traces. We …
