Bi-scalar integrable CFT at any dimension

Abstract

We propose a D-dimensional generalization of 4D bi-scalar conformal quantum field theory recently introduced by G\"urdogan and one of the authors as a strong-twist double scaling limit of γ-deformed N=4 SYM theory. Similarly to the 4D case, this D-dimensional CFT is also dominated by "fishnet" Feynman graphs and is integrable in the planar limit. The dynamics of these graphs is described by the integrable conformal SO(D+1,1) spin chain. In 2D it is the analogue of L. Lipatov's SL(2,C) spin chain for the Regge limit of QCD, but with the spins s=1/4 instead of s=0. Generalizing recent 4D results of Grabner, Gromov, Korchemsky and one of the authors to any D we compute exactly, at any coupling, a four point correlation function, dominated by the simplest fishnet graphs of cylindric topology, and extract from it exact dimensions of R-charge 2 operators with any spin and some of their OPE structure constants.
