Title: Subleading Regge trajectories in N=4 SYM

Abstract:
In this talk, I will present a class of Regge trajectories in N=4 SYM with novel behavior: subleading trajectories with non-orthogonal intercepts. I will show how the integrability-based method of the Quantum Spectral Curve works on these trajectories, and how the usual application of this method, which works for leading trajectories, needs some crucial modifications, which are backed up by non-trivial consistency tests and numerical data. The studied trajectories appear in both twist-two and higher-twist operator families, and could be an important stepping stone for an identification of the Odderon intercept in N=4 SYM.
