Chiral Green's functions in superconformal field theory

Description

By solving the Ward identities in a superconformal field theory we find the unique three-point Green's functions composed of chiral superfields for N=1,2,3,4 supersymmetry. We show that the N=1 four-point function with R-charge equal to one is uniquely determined by the Ward identities up to the specification of four constants. We discuss why chiral Green's functions above three-points, with total R-charge greater than N, are not uniquely determined
