Superconformal field theories in analytic superspace
Abstract
We summarise recent work on superconformal field theories using analytic superspace. All operators of N=4 SYM can be given as unconstrained superfields on analytic superspace. We show how to write down operators as superfields on analytic superspace and how to completely solve the Ward indentities for their correlation functions. We discuss the non-renormalisation of certain operators, and of some of their correlation functions. We discuss the relationship between harmonic and analytic superspace. Finally we discuss applications of these techniques to superconformal field theory in 6 dimensions.
