On the logarithmic powers of sl(2)sl(2) SYM4_4

Abstract

In the high spin limit the minimal anomalous dimension of (fixed) twist operators in the sl(2)sl(2) sector of planar N=4{\cal N}=4 Super Yang-Mills theory expands as γ(g,s,L)=f(g)ln⁡s+fsl(g,L)+∑n=1∞γ(n)(g,L)(ln⁡s)−n+...γ(g,s,L)=f(g) \ln s + f_{sl}(g,L) + \sum \limits_{n=1}^\infty γ^{(n)}(g,L) (\ln s)^{-n} + ... . We find that the sub-logarithmic contribution γ(n)(g,L)γ^{(n)}(g,L) is governed by a linear integral equation, depending on the solution of the linear integral equations appearing at the steps n′≤n−3n'\leq n-3. We work out this recursive procedure and determine explicitly γ(n)(g,L)γ^{(n)}(g,L) (in particular γ(1)(g,L)=0γ^{(1)}(g,L)=0 and γ(n)(g,2)=γ(n)(g,3)=0γ^{(n)}(g,2)=γ^{(n)}(g,3)=0). Furthermore, we connect the γ(n)(g,L)γ^{(n)}(g,L) (for finite LL) to the generalised scaling functions, fn(r)(g)f^{(r)}_n(g), appearing in the limit of large twist L∼ln⁡sL\sim\ln s. Finally, we provide the first orders of weak and strong coupling for the first γ(n)(g,L)γ^{(n)}(g,L) (and hence fn(r)(g)f^{(r)}_n(g)).
