Abstract

We extend the hidden zeros and 22-split of tree-level Tr(ϕ3){\rm Tr}(\phi^3) amplitudes to loop-level Feynman integrands, apart from some physically irrelevant scaleless integrals. Our method is based on a certain factorization mechanism that occurs in Feynman diagrams when summing over shuffle permutations. The loop-level hidden zeros and 22-split identified in this work differ from those in the literature. In our result, the kinematic conditions for loop-level hidden zeros and 22-split are remarkably simple. Their connection is as tight as at tree-level, with the same procedure for obtaining the 22-split condition from the zero condition. The resulting 22-split formula at loop-level represents a generalization of that at tree-level: the LL-loop integrand is expressed as a sum over L+1L+1 terms, each of which exhibits a 22-split structure.
