Multitrace scalar operators in the (0,k,0) representations of SU(4)(R) shar
e many properties with their single-trace analogues. These multitrace opera
tors are primary fields of short representations of the N = 4 superconforma
l group. Thus, they have protected dimensions. We show that two- and three-
point correlator functions of such operators do not receive radiative corre
ctions at order g(2) in perturbation theory for an arbitrary gauge group. [
