Mellin Amplitudes for Fermionic Conformal Correlators.

 

Abstract: 

We define Mellin amplitudes for the fermion-scalar four point function and the fermion four point function in three dimensions. The Mellin amplitude thus defined has multiple components each associated with a tensor structure. Each component factorizes on dynamical poles onto components of the Mellin amplitudes for the corresponding three point functions. The novelty here is that for a given exchanged primary, each component of the Mellin amplitude may in general have more than one series of poles. We present a few examples of Mellin amplitudes for tree-level Witten diagrams and tree-level conformal Feynman integrals with fermionic legs, which illustrate the general properties.
