n-point correlators of twist-2 operators in SU(N) Yang-Mills theory to the lowest perturbative order
Abstract
Abstract We compute, to the lowest perturbative order in SU(N) Yang-Mills theory, n-point correlators in the coordinate and momentum representation of the gauge-invariant twist-2 operators with maximal spin along the p + direction, both in Minkowskian and — by analytic continuation — Euclidean space-time. We also construct the corresponding generating functionals. Remarkably, they have the structure of the logarithm of a functional determinant of the identity plus a term involving the effective propagators that act on the appropriate source fields.
