Among the unitarity cuts of massless 4-loop propagators two classes have remained unknown until recently: 2-loop 3-particle cuts, and 1-loop 4-particle cuts. In this article we shall discuss the calculation that completes the master…
We discuss the extension of the maximal-unitarity method to two loops, focusing on the example of the planar double box. Maximal cuts are reinterpreted as contour integrals, with the choice of contour fixed by the requirement that integrals…
