In this letter, we generalize the recursion methods based on cut equations arXiv:2412.21027, originally developed for scalar theories, to gluons in pure Yang-Mills theory. In gauge theories, planar loop integrands are subtle to defined and…

The recently-developed "scalar-scaffolding" formulation of gluon amplitudes casts the Yang-Mills (YM) amplitude as a well-defined Laurent series expansion in scalar variables, valid for any spacetime dimension and helicity configuration. In…
