We propose an approach to compute one-loop corrections to the four-point amplitude in the higher spin gravities that are holographically dual to free $O(N)$, $U(N)$ and $USp(N)$ vector models. We compute the double-particle cut of one-loop…
We study in detail the factorization of the newly obtained two-loop four-particle amplitude in superstring theory. In particular some missing factors from the scalar correlators are obtained correctly, in comparing with a previous study of…
We show how the multiloop amplitudes of $\Phi^3$ theory (in the worldline formulation of Schmidt and Schubert) are recovered from the N-tachyon $(h+1)$-loop amplitude in bosonic string theory in the $\alpha' \to 0$ limit, if one keeps the…
The pure spinor formalism for the superstring has the advantage over the more conventional Ramond-Neveu-Schwarz formalism of being manifestly spacetime supersymmetric, which simplifies the computation of multiparticle and multiloop…
The multiloop amplitudes for the bosonic string in presence of a constant B-field are built by using the basic commutation relations for the open string zero modes and oscillators. The open string Green function on the annulus is obtained…
In this lectures we outline the construction of pure spinor superstrings. We consider both the open and closed pure spinor superstrings in critical and noncritical dimensions and on flat and curved target spaces with RR flux. We exhibit the…
We consider folded spinning strings in AdS_5xS^5 (with one spin component S in AdS_5 and J in S^5) corresponding to the Tr(D^S Z^J) operators in the sl(2) sector of the N=4 SYM theory in the special scaling limit in which both the string…
We study string corrections to one-loop amplitudes of single-particle operators ${\cal O}_p$ in $AdS_5 \times S^5$. The tree-level correlators in supergravity enjoy an accidental 10d conformal symmetry. Consequently, one observes a partial…
We obtain a color-kinematics-dual representation of the two-loop four-vector amplitude a general renormalizable massless $\mathcal{N}=1$ SYM theory, including internal matter as chiral supermultiplets. The integrand is constructed to be…
We evaluate the one-loop four-graviton scattering amplitude in type-II superstring theory exactly in $\alpha'$. This result is achieved by combining physical insights into the $i\varepsilon$ prescription in string theory with a new…
We present a novel ten-dimensional description of ambitwistor strings. This formulation is based on a set of supertwistor variables involving pure spinors and a set of constraints previously introduced in the context of the $D=10$…
Calculation of amplitudes in perturbative quantum field theory involve large loop integrals. The complexity of those integrals, in combination with the large number of Feynman diagrams, make the calculations very difficult. Reduction…
Perturbative superstring theory is revisited, with the goal of giving a simpler and more direct demonstration that multi-loop amplitudes are gauge-invariant (apart from known anomalies), satisfy space-time supersymmetry when expected, and…
We compute the Schroedinger functional (SF) for the case of pure SU(3) gauge theory at two-loop order in lattice perturbation theory. This allows us to extract the three-loop beta-function in the SF-scheme. These results are required to…
We evaluate closed string disk amplitudes in the pure spinor formalism. We focus on low point functions (two- and one-point functions) but our analysis is also relevant for higher n-point functions. Amongst others we discuss issues arising…

The scattering equations provide a powerful framework for the study of scattering amplitudes in a variety of theories. Their derivation from ambitwistor string theory led to proposals for formulae at one loop on a torus for 10 dimensional…
We give a simple prescription for computing, in the framework of the bosonic string theory, off-shell one-loop amplitudes with any number of external massless particles, both for the open and for the closed string. We discuss their…
