Meson correlators in 4d $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 SCFTs and hints for 8d structures at weak coupling

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: A bstract We study correlators of $$ \frac{1}{2} $$ 1 2 -BPS mesons in two examples of 4d SQCDs with $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 superconformal symmetry in the planar limit. We focus on the weakly coupled regime and obtain one-loop corrections to n -point meson correlators with arbitrary operator dimensions. We show that these corrections can be resumed into generating functions which exhibit emergent 8d structures similar to the ones previously observed at strong coupling via AdS/CFT. These structures of the $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 theories also resemble the hidden 10d structures in 4d $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 4 SYM.
