We derive novel recursion relations for all loop amplitude integrands of planar, maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in terms of unitarity-like `cuts' obtained via sequences of BCFW deformations in momentum-twistor space.
Using the Feynman parameter method, we have calculated in an elegant manner a set of one$-$loop box scalar integrals with massless internal lines, but containing 0, 1, 2, or 3 external massive lines. To treat IR divergences (both soft and…

We relate a $l$-loop Feynman integral to a sum of phase space integrals, where the integrands are determined by the spanning trees of the original $l$-loop graph. Causality requires that the propagators of the trees have a modified…
In this work we perform a systematic study of the singularity structure of inflationary correlations at 1-loop. We explicitly compute a few diagrams and find a pattern emerging in the singularities produced. Motivated by this, we derive…
We reduce all the most complicated Feynman integrals in two-loop five-light-parton scattering amplitudes to basic master integrals, while other integrals can be reduced even easier. Our results are expressed as systems of linear relations…
The traditional formulation of string amplitudes via worldsheet integrals provides a parametrization of the moduli space that fails to expose the complete singularity structure of the amplitudes. This problem is solved by the positive…

The method of Symmetries of Feynman Integrals defines for any Feynman diagram a set of partial differential equations. On some locus in parameter space the equations imply that the diagram can be reduced to a linear combination of simpler…
