We study equal-time in-in correlators of massless scalar fields in flat space at one loop. Using the time-ordered decomposition of correlators together with a cosmological analogue of the Baikov representation, we systematically construct…
We explore the duality between supersymmetric Wilson loop on null polygonal contours in maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and next-to-maximal helicity violating (NMHV) scattering amplitudes. Earlier analyses demonstrated that the…
Celestial amplitudes are flat-space amplitudes which are Mellin-transformed to correlators living on the celestial sphere. In this note we present a recursion relation, based on a tree-level BCFW recursion, for gravitational celestial…
Scattering amplitudes in $D$ dimensions involve particular terms that originate from the interplay of UV poles with the $D-4$ dimensional parts of loop numerators. Such contributions can be controlled through a finite set of…
Using $\zeta$-function regularization, we study the one-loop effective action of fundamental strings in $AdS_5\times S^5$ dual to the latitude $\frac{1}{4}$-BPS Wilson loop in $\mathcal{N}=4$ Super-Yang-Mills theory. To avoid certain…
The planar scattering amplitudes of $\mathcal{N} = 4$ super-Yang--Mills theory display symmetries and structures which underlie their relatively simple analytic properties such as having only logarithmic singularities and no poles at…
Using the Schwinger-Keldysh-formalism, reformulated in arXiv:2108.01695 as an effective field theory in Euclidean anti-de Sitter, we evaluate the one-loop cosmological four-point function of a conformally coupled interacting scalar field in…
We use the soft-collinear bootstrap to construct the 8-loop integrand for the 4-point amplitude and 4-stress-tensor correlation function in planar maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. Both have a unique representation in terms of…
We report on recent progress in the use of string techniques for the computation of field theory amplitudes. We show how one-loop renormalization constants in Yang-Mills theory can be computed using the open spinning string, we review the…
We show that the one-loop on-shell four-point scattering amplitude of massless $\phi^4$ scalar field theory in 4D Minkowski space time, when Mellin transformed to the Celestial sphere at infinity, transforms covariantly under the global…
We derive an infinite sequence of Schwinger-Dyson equations for $N=1$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. The fundamental and the only variable employed is the Wilson-loop geometrically represented in $N=1$ superspace: it organizes an…
This work is motivated by recent developments in celestial holography. In \cite{CP}, the authors interpreted QCD collinear singularities in terms of operator product expansions in a two-dimensional CFT. We reformulate the algebraic…
We present the full calculation of the divergent one-loop contribution to the effective boson Lagrangian for supergravity, including the Yang-Mills sector and the helicity-odd operators that arise from integration over fermion fields. The…
This review covers a number of applications of conformal field theory methods for perturbative calculations in N=4 Super Yang-Mills and ABJM theory. After motivating the role of superconformal symmetry for elementary particle physics…
We study five-point off-shell conformal integrals and the associated half-BPS correlation functions at two loops in the 't Hooft coupling expansion of maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. We construct a basis of…
We show how to formulate celestial twistor amplitudes in Yang-Mills (YM) and gravity. This is motivated by a refined holographic correspondence between the twistor transform and the light transform in the boundary Lorentzian CFT. The…
We explore celestial amplitude corresponding to $2d$ bulk $\mathcal{S}$-matrix. We consider scalar particles with identical mass and show that the celestial amplitude becomes the fourier transform of the $2d$ $\mathcal{S}$-matrix written in…
This article studies methods to obtain relations for scattering amplitudes at the loop level, with concrete examples at one loop. These methods originate in the analysis of large so-called Britto-Cachazo-Feng-Witten shifts of tree level…
We compute the complete non-planar integrand for the correlation function of four lightest scalar operators in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory at five-loop order. This is equivalent to the super-correlator of nine stress-tensor multiplets in…
We argue that existing methods for the perturbative computation of anomalous dimensions and the disentanglement of mixing in N = 4 gauge theory can be considerably simplified, systematized and extended by focusing on the theory's dilatation…
