We consider questions related to the existence of spanning trees in graphs with the property that after the removal of any path in the tree the graph remains connected. We show that, for planar graphs, the existence of trees with this…
We review recent progress in determining the infrared singularity structure of on-shell scattering amplitudes in massless gauge theories. We present a simple ansatz where soft singularities of any scattering amplitude of massless partons,…
We study the leading singularities for pure gluon amplitudes obtained by on-shell gluing of three-particle amplitudes for an arbitrary graph in any number of dimensions. By encoding the polarization vector contractions in a graphical way,…
It is shown that the technique recently suggested by Lowell Brown for summing the tree graphs at threshold can be extended to calculate the loop effects. Explicit result is derived for the sum of one-loop graphs for the amplitude of…
In a few recent papers we introduced the chirality-flow formalism, which was shown to make calculations of tree-level Feynman diagrams simple and transparent. Chirality flow, which is based on the spinor-helicity formalism, allows to often…
Several powerful techniques for evaluating massless scalar Feynman diagrams are developed, viz: the solution of recurrence relations to evaluate diagrams with arbitrary numbers of loops in $n=4-2\omega$ dimensions; the discovery and use of…
We review the recent developments of the loop-tree duality method, focussing our discussion on analysing the singular behaviour of the loop integrand of the dual representation of one-loop integrals and scattering amplitudes. We show that…
Within the non-perturbative 1/N expansion, we discuss numerical methods for calculating multi-loop Feynman graph needed to derive physical scattering amplitudes. We apply higher order 1/N methods to the scalar sector of the standard model,…
The degree spectrum of a countable structure is the set of all Turing degrees of presentations of that structure. We show that every nonlow Turing degree lies in the spectrum of some differentially closed field (of characteristic 0, with a…
We construct C-algebras for a class of surfaces that are inverse images of certain polynomials of arbitrary degree. By using the directed graph associated to a matrix, the representation theory can be understood in terms of ``loop'' and…
We extend the hidden zeros and $2$-split of tree-level ${\rm Tr}(\phi^3)$ amplitudes to loop-level Feynman integrands, apart from some physically irrelevant scaleless integrals. Our method is based on a certain factorization mechanism that…
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…
We undertake a detailed investigation into the structure of permutations in monotone grid classes whose row-column graphs do not contain components with more than one cycle. Central to this investigation is a new decomposition, called the…
We use on-shell recursion relations to compute analytically the one-loop corrections to maximally-helicity-violating n-gluon amplitudes in QCD. The cut-containing parts have been computed previously; our work supplies the remaining rational…
We take a major step towards computing $D$-dimensional one-loop amplitudes in general gauge theories, compatible with the principles of unitarity and the color-kinematics duality. For $n$-point amplitudes with either supersymmetry…
We perform a detailed analysis of renormalization at one-loop order in the $\lambda\phi^4$ theory with Robin boundary condition (characterized by a constant $c$) on a single plate at $z=0$. For arbitrary $c\geq0$ the renormalized theory is…
Hom shifts form a class of multidimensional shifts of finite type (SFT) and consist of colorings of the grid Z2 where adjacent colours must be neighbors in a fixed finite undirected simple graph G. This class includes several important…

Shuffle algebras are monoids for an unconvential monoidal category structure on graded vector spaces. We present two homological results on shuffle algebras with monomial relations, and use them to prove exact and asymptotic results on…
We find that unitarity cuts and the duality between color and kinematics are sufficient constraints to bootstrap $D$-dimensional QCD scattering amplitudes starting from three-particle tree-level. Specifically, we calculate tree level…
