Abstract: We compute anomalous dimensions of higher spin operators in Conformal Field Theory at arbitrary space-time dimension by using the OPE inversion formula of cite{Caron-Huot:2017vep}, both from the position space representation as well as from the integral (viz. Mellin) representation of the conformal blocks. The Mellin space is advantageous over the position space not only in allowing to write expressions agnostic to the space-time dimension, but also in that it replaces tedious recursion relations in terms of simple sums which are easy to perform. We evaluate the contributions of scalar and spin exchanges in the tchannel exactly, in terms of higher order Hypergeometric functions. These relate to a particular exchange of conformal spin in the schannel through the inversion formula. Our exact results reproduce the special cases for large spin anomalous dimension and OPE coefficients obtained previously in the literature.
