We study two-to-two parton scattering amplitudes in the high-energy limit of perturbative QCD by iteratively solving the BFKL equation. This allows us to predict the imaginary part of the amplitude to leading-logarithmic order for arbitrary…

In this review we discuss some recent developments related to one-loop N = 4 super Yang-Mills scattering amplitudes calculated to all orders in epsilon. It is often the case that one-loop gauge theory computations are carried out to order…

Loop-level scattering amplitudes for massless particles have singularities in regions where tree amplitudes are perfectly smooth. For example, a $2\to4$ gluon scattering process has a singularity in which each incoming gluon splits into a…

In this paper, we present the two-loop correction to scattering amplitudes in three-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=6$ Chern-Simons matter theory. We use eight-point case as our main example, but the method generalizes to all multiplicities. The…

The decomposition of a one-loop scattering amplitude into elementary functions with rational coefficients introduces spurious singularities which afflict individual coefficients but cancel in the complete amplitude. These cancellations…

We show that the evaluation of scattering amplitudes can be formulated as a problem of multivariate polynomial division, with the components of the integration-momenta as indeterminates. We present a recurrence relation which, independently…
