Description
Supersymmetric conformal field theories have gained huge renewed interest, especially due to the Maldacena conjecture relating N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory to type IIB string theory on AdS5 × S5. To gain a better understanding of
these theories it is important to study the implications of the N = 4 superconformal
symmetry in 4 dimensions, PSU(2,2|4), on the observables. In this talk, methods to construct the invariants of four- and higher point correlators under this symmetry group will be discussed. Since the construction focuses on analytic superspace methods, an introduction to this space will be given.
