We revisit the strong coupling limit of the cusp anomalous dimension in planar N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. It is known that the strong coupling expansion is asymptotic and non-Borel summable. As a consequence, the cusp anomalous dimension receives non-perturbative corrections, and the complete strong coupling expansion should be a resurgent transseries. We reveal that the perturbative and non-perturbative parts in the transseries are closely interrelated. Solving the Beisert-Eden-Staudacher equation systematically, we analyze in detail the large order behavior in the strong coupling perturbative expansion and show that the non-perturbative information is indeed encoded there. An ambiguity of (lateral) Borel resummations of the perturbative expansion is precisely canceled by the contributions from the non-perturbative sectors,

  1. Resurgence of high-energy string amplitudes

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    High-energy string amplitudes have asymptotic expansions governed by Bernoulli numbers, upgraded via resurgence to transseries whose Stokes data encode non-perturbative monodromy between kinematic regions.

  2. Strong coupling structure of $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM observables with matrix Bessel kernel

    hep-th 2026-02 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Reorganizing the transseries of matrix Bessel kernel determinants at strong coupling yields a simple structure where non-perturbative corrections are directly determined by the perturbative series for N=4 SYM observables.
