We initiate a comprehensive investigation of the geometry of the amplituhedron, a recently found geometric object whose volume calculates the integrand of scattering amplitudes in planar N=4 SYM theory. We do so by introducing and studying…
We investigate a new algebra-based approach of finding Grassmannian formulas for scattering amplitudes. Our prime motivation is massive amplitudes of 4D $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM, and therefore we consider a 6D Grassmannian formula, where we can…
We compute the four-point amplitude in 3d N=8 SYM at two loops, by solving the three dimensional scalar doublebox in dimensional regularization. We compare it to the same result in the ABJM theory, to which maximal SYM should flow in the…
A non-trivial consequence of the super-correlator/super-amplitude duality is that the integrand of the four-point correlation function of stress-tensor multiplets in planar N=4 super Yang-Mills contains a certain combination of n-point…
We review the role of integrability in certain aspects of N=4 SYM which go beyond the planar spectrum. In particular, we discuss integrability in relation to non-planar anomalous dimensions, multi-point functions and Maldacena-Wilson loops.
Following the recent proposal of Alday and Maldacena to obtain the strong coupling scattering amplitude in N=4 SYM via AdS/CFT, we point out that a unique solution can be obtained by imposing all the Virasoro constraints. In the case of…
We use the AdS/CFT prescription of Alday and Maldacena \cite{am} to analyze gluon 6-point scattering amplitudes at strong coupling in ${\cal N}=4$ SYM. By cutting and gluing we obtain AdS 6-point amplitudes that contain extra boundary…
There is a remarkable well-known connection between the G$(4,n)$ cluster algebra and $n$-particle amplitudes in $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM theory. For $n \ge 8$ two long-standing open questions have been to find a mathematically natural way to…
We study a model for nonperturbative unitarization of the four-point contact scalar amplitude in four dimensions. It is defined through an infinite sum of planar diagrams, constructed using two-particle unitarity and crossing symmetry. We…
An on-shell formalism for the computation of S-matrices of SYM theories in three spacetime dimensions is presented. The framework is a generalization of the spinor-helicity formalism in four dimensions. The formalism is applied to establish…
We demonstrate by explicit multi-loop calculation that \gamma-deformed planar N=4 SYM, supplemented with a set of double-trace counter-terms, has two nontrivial fixed points in the recently proposed double scaling limit, combining vanishing…
In this letter we consider the collinear limit of gluon scattering amplitudes in planar N=4 SYM theory at strong coupling. We argue that in this limit scattering amplitudes map into correlators of twist fields in the two dimensional…
We investigate the analytic structure of the $2\to5$ scattering amplitude in the planar limit of $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM in multi-Regge kinematics in all physical regions. We demonstrate the close connection between Regge pole and Regge cut…
We study gluon scattering amplitudes in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory at strong coupling via the AdS/CFT correspondence. We solve numerically the discretized Euler-Lagrange equations on the square worldsheet for the minimal surface with…
The Alday-Maldacena solution, relevant to the n=4 gluon amplitude in N=4 SYM at strong coupling, was recently identified as a minimum of the regularized action in the moduli space of solutions of the AdS_5 sigma-model equations of motion.…
We consider the on-shell amplitudes in N=(1,1) SYM in D=6 dimensions within the spinor helicity and on-shell superspace formalism. This leads to an effective and straightforward technique reducing the calculation to a set of scalar master…
Very recently in arXiv:0705.0303 Alday and Maldacena gave a string theory prescription for computing (all) planar amplitudes in N=4 supersymmetric gauge theory at strong coupling using the AdS/CFT correspondence. These amplitudes are…
We consider a class of N=2 conformal SU(N) SYM theories in four dimensions with matter in the fundamental, two-index symmetric and anti-symmetric representations, and study the corresponding matrix model provided by localization on a sphere…
We study short operators in planar $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM at strong coupling, for general spin and $SO(6)$ symmetric traceless representations. At strong coupling their dimension grows like $\Delta \sim 2\sqrt{\delta} \lambda^{1/4}$ and their…
We review recent progress on computing scattering amplitudes of planar N=4 super Yang-Mills at strong coupling by using the AdS/CFT duality. We do explicit computations by using both, dimensional regularization and a cut-off in the radial…
