We study the symbol of the two-loop n-gluon MHV amplitude for all Mandelstam regions in multi-Regge kinematics in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. While the number of distinct Mandelstam regions grows exponentially with n, the increase of…

We prove that all tree-level $n$-point supergluon (scalar) amplitudes in AdS$_5$ can be recursively constructed, using factorization and flat-space limit. Our method is greatly facilitated by a natural R-symmetry basis for planar…

We propose a systematic way to carry out the method introduced in hep-th/0410077 for computing certain unitarity cuts of one-loop N=4 amplitudes of gluons. We observe that the class of cuts for which the method works involves all…

There is growing evidence that on-shell gluon scattering amplitudes in planar N=4 SYM theory are equivalent to Wilson loops evaluated over contours consisting of straight, light-like segments defined by the momenta of the external gluons.…

We derive the four-dimensional integrand of the maximal-helicity-violating four-particle form factor for the chiral part of the stress-tensor supermultiplet in planar $\mathcal{N}=4$ super-Yang-Mills theory at two loops. In our integrand…

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…

A study of the colour-ordered one-loop amplitudes in N=4 SYM reveals a surprising property: numerically, the amplitudes have an Approximately Universal form A^{1-loop}_n ~ A^{tree}_n \times U_n, where U_n is helicity independent. This form…
