Harmony of Super Form Factors
read the original abstract
In this paper we continue our systematic study of form factors of half-BPS operators in N=4 super Yang-Mills. In particular, we extend various techniques known for amplitudes to the case of form factors, including MHV rules, recursion relations, unitarity and dual MHV rules. As an application, we present the solution of the recursion relation for split-helicity form factors. We then consider form factors of the stress-tensor multiplet operator and of its chiral truncation, and write down supersymmetric Ward identities using chiral as well as non-chiral superspace formalisms. This allows us to obtain compact formulae for families of form factors, such as the maximally non-MHV case. Finally we generalise dual MHV rules in dual momentum space to form factors.

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.
