The simplest four-point correlation function in N=4 SYM

In this talk I will describe the simplest non-protected four-point correlation function in N=4 SYM. At weak coupling this correlator exhibits remarkable properties in different kinematical limits. These observations can be used as input to bootstrap the correlator at any desired loop order. At strong coupling it is dual to a minimal area in AdS. I will comment on its kinematical limits and a puzzle possibly due to an order of limits.
