In the recent works [arXiv:1803.05809],[arXiv: 1806.01842], Halohedron emerged as amplituhedron for 1-loop planar diagrams in bi-adjoint massless $\phi^3$ theory. Halohedron is a specific case of graph cubeahedron where the considered graph…
All-loop planar scattering amplitudes in maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory can be formulated geometrically in terms of the "amplituhedron". We study the mathematical structures of the one-loop amplituhedron, and present a new…
In this note we continue the exploration of the polytope picture for scattering amplitudes, where amplitudes are associated with the volumes of polytopes in generalized momentum-twistor spaces. After a quick warm-up example illustrating the…

We study scalar one-loop amplitudes in massive $\phi^3$-theory within causal loop-tree duality. We derive a recurrence relation for the integrand of the amplitude. The integrand is by construction free of spurious singularities on…
We propose a new diagrammatic formulation of the all-loop scattering amplitudes/Wilson loops in planar N=4 SYM, dubbed the "momentum-twistor diagrams". These are on-shell-diagrams obtained by gluing trivalent black and white vertices…
In this letter we compute a canonical set of cuts of the integrand for MHV amplitudes in planar ${\cal N}=4$ SYM, where all internal propagators are put on-shell. These "deepest cuts" probe the most complicated Feynman diagrams and on-shell…
We present a semi-recursive method for calculating the rational parts of one-loop amplitudes when recursion produces double poles. We illustrate this with the graviton scattering amplitude M^{1-loop}(1-, 2+, 3+, 4+, 5+).
We summarize recent progress in applying the worldline formalism to the analytic calculation of one-loop N-point amplitudes. This string-inspired approach is well-adapted to avoiding some of the calculational inefficiencies of the standard…
The "amplituhedron" for tree-level scattering amplitudes in the bi-adjoint $\phi^3$ theory is given by the ABHY associahedron in kinematic space, which has been generalized to give a realization for all finite-type cluster algebra…
In this paper, we define the ABJM loop momentum amplituhedron, which is a geometry encoding ABJM planar tree-level amplitudes and loop integrands in the three-dimensional spinor helicity space. Translating it to the space of dual momenta…
We present a method to compute the integrands of one-loop Einstein-Yang-Mills amplitudes for any number of external gauge and gravity multiplets. Our construction relies on the double-copy structure of Einstein-Yang-Mills as…
The amplituhedron provides a beautiful description of perturbative superamplitude integrands in N=4 SYM in terms of purely geometric objects, generalisations of polytopes. On the other hand the Wilson loop in supertwistor space also gives…
We study a novel geometric expansion for scattering amplitudes in the planar sector of N=4 super Yang-Mills theory, in the context of the Amplituhedron which reproduces the all-loop integrand as a canonical differential form on the positive…
Recently, a new approach to computing the canonical forms of the momentum amplituhedron in dual-momentum space was proposed by the authors. These are relevant for the integrands of scattering amplitudes in planar N=4 super-Yang-Mills. At…
In this note we make a field-theoretical derivation of a series of new recursion relations by a one-parameter deformation of kinematic variables for tree and one-loop amplitudes of bi-adjoint $\phi^3$ theory. Tree amplitudes are given by…
We discuss the origin of the Wilson polygon - MHV amplitude duality at the perturbative level. It is shown that the duality for the MHV amplitudes at one-loop level can be proven upon the peculiar change of variables in Feynman…
We present the integrand reduction via multivariate polynomial division as a natural technique to encode the unitarity conditions of Feynman amplitudes. We derive a recursive formula for the integrand reduction, valid for arbitrary…
Inspired by the closed contour of momentum conservation in an interaction, we introduce an integrable one-dimensional theory that underlies some integrable models such as the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP)-hierarchy and the amplituhedron. In…
One-loop amplitudes are to a large extent determined by their unitarity cuts in four dimensions. We show that the remaining rational terms can be obtained from the ultraviolet behaviour of the amplitude, and determine universal form factors…
