Modular interpolating functions for N=4 SYM

Understand

We construct interpolating functions fully compatible with S-duality.

• We then consider the problem of resumming perturbative expansions for anomalous dimensions of low twist non-protected operators in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory.
• When the rank of the gauge group is small, the interpolations suggest that anomalous dimensions of leading twist operators take their maximum value at the point $\tau =\exp(i\pi/3)$.
• For fixed spin and large enough rank, there is a level-crossing region, where the anomalous dimension of the leading twist operator reaches its maximum and then bounces back.
