Abstract

We continue the study of the duality between super-correlators and scattering super-amplitudes in planar N=4 SYM. We provide a number of further examples supporting the conjectured duality relation between these two seemingly different objects. We consider the five- and six-point one-loop NMHV and the six-point tree-level NNMHV amplitudes, obtaining them from the appropriate correlators of stress-tensor multiplets in N=4 SYM. In particular, for the rather non-trivial parity-odd sector of the integrand of the six-point one-loop NMHV amplitude, we find exact agreement between the results obtained from the correlator and from BCFW recurrence relations. Together these results lead to the conjecture that the integrands of any NkMHV amplitude at any loop order in planar N=4 SYM can be described by the correlators of stress-tensor multiplets.
