Modular invariance in superstring theory from N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 super-Yang-Mills
Abstract We study the four-point function of the lowest-lying half-BPS operators in the N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 SU(N) super-Yang-Mills theory and its relation to the flat-space four-graviton amplitude in type IIB superstring theory. We work in a large-N expansion in which the complexified Yang-Mills...
