We present a set of algebraic functions for evaluating the coefficients of the scalar integral basis of a general one-loop amplitude. The functions are derived from unitarity cuts, but the complete cut-integral procedure has been carried…

The infrared exponentiation properties of dimensionally-regularized multi-loop scattering amplitudes are typically hidden at the level of the integrand, materializing only after integral evaluation. We address this long-standing problem by…

We bootstrap one-loop string corrections to the four-point function of half-BPS operators in a 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ SCFT with flavour group $SO(8)$, dual to gluon scattering at genus one on AdS$_5\times$S$^3$. We identify an 8-dimensional…
