A bstractIn this paper we study the Sudakov form factor in $ \mathcal{N} = {4} $ super Yang-Mills theory to the three-loop order. The latter is expressed in terms of planar and non-planar loop integrals. We show that it is possible to choose a representation in which each loop integral has uniform transcendentality. We verify analytically the expected exponentiation of the infrared divergences with the correct values of the three-loop cusp and collinear anomalous dimensions in dimensional regularisation. We find that the form factor in $ \mathcal{N} = {4} $ super Yang-Mills can be related to the leading transcendentality part of the quark and gluon form factors in QCD. We also study the ultraviolet properties of the form factor in D > 4 dimensions, and find unexpected cancellations, resulting in an improved ultraviolet behaviour.
