The amplituhedron $A_{n,k,m}(Z)$ is the image of the positive Grassmannian $Gr_{k,n}^{\geq 0}$ under the map ${Z}: Gr_{k,n}^{\geq 0} \to Gr_{k,k+m}$ induced by a positive linear map $Z:\mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^{k+m}$. Motivated by a…

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…

The amplituhedron is a mathematical object which was introduced to provide a geometric origin of scattering amplitudes in $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang Mills theory. It generalizes \emph{cyclic polytopes} and the \emph{positive Grassmannian},…

Tree-level scattering amplitudes in planar N=4 super Yang-Mills are known to be Yangian-invariant. It has been shown that integrability allows to obtain a general, explicit method to find such invariants. The uplifting of this result to the…
