We use the worldline formalism to derive integral representations for three classes of amplitudes in scalar field theory: (i) the scalar propagator exchanging N momenta with a scalar background field (ii) the "half-ladder" with N rungs in x…
We study the four-gluon scattering amplitude in the high energy limit of QCD written in terms of its conformal expansion. We highlight the need to include both even and odd conformal spin contributions in order to map it to an iterative…

We show a nice symmetric/antisymmetric relation between the four vector Lorentz transformation and the Dirac spinor one in the Majorana representation. From the spinor one, we exhibit the antisymmetric pending of the symmetric Minkowski…

We factorize 4d Fradkin-Linetsky higher spin conformal algebra by maximal ideal $I^1-\alpha$ and construct irreducible infinite-dimensional modules $M_\alpha$ of 4d conformal algebra that are parameterized by real number $\alpha$. It is…
