Gluon scattering amplitudes at strong coupling
read the original abstract
We describe how to compute planar gluon scattering amplitudes at strong coupling in N=4 super Yang Mills by using the gauge/string duality. The computation boils down to finding a certain classical string configuration whose boundary conditions are determined by the gluon momenta. The results are infrared divergent. We introduce the gravity version of dimensional regularization to define finite quantities. The leading and subleading IR divergencies are characterized by two functions of the coupling that we compute at strong coupling. We compute also the full finite form for the four point amplitude and we find agreement with a recent ansatz by Bern, Dixon and Smirnov.

Form factors of $\mathscr{N}=4$ self-dual Yang-Mills from the chiral algebra bootstrap
The chiral algebra bootstrap yields all-loop splitting functions for self-dual N=4 SYM, a proof of no double-pole OPEs, and novel two-loop form factors with anti-self-dual field strength insertions.

Classical correlation functions at strong coupling from hexagonalization
In the classical strong-coupling regime, half-BPS correlation functions in planar N=4 SYM exponentiate under the hexagon formalism and are governed by TBA equations structurally equivalent to Gaiotto-Moore-Neitzke equ...
