Abstract: The anomalous dimensions of operators in the purely gluonic SU(2,1|2) sector of any planar conformal N=2 theory can be read off from the N=4 SYM results by replacing the N=4 coupling constant with an interpolating function of the N=2 coupling constants [1], which we refer to as the effective coupling. For a large class of N=2 theories, we compute the weak-coupling expansion of these functions as well as the leading strong-coupling term by employing supersymmetric localization. Via Feynman diagrams, we interpret our results as the relative (between N=2 and N=4) finite renormalization of the coupling constant. Using the AdS/CFT dictionary, we identify the effective couplings with the effective string tensions of the corresponding gravity dual theories. Thus, any observable in the SU(2,1|2) sector can be obtained from its N=4 counterpart by replacing the N=4 coupling constant with the universal, for a given theory, effective coupling.
