We elaborate on a new recursive method proposed in arXiv:2312.15484 for computing tree-level $n$-point supergluon amplitudes as well as those with one gluon, i.e., spinning amplitudes, in ${\rm AdS}_5 \times S^3$. We present an improved…

We derive an ABDK-like relation between the one- and two-loop four-graviton amplitudes in N=8 supergravity. Specifically we show that the infrared divergent part of the two-loop amplitude is one-half the square of the one-loop amplitude,…

We derive a compact all-loop-order expression for the IR-divergent part of the N=4 SYM four-gluon amplitude, which includes both planar and all subleading-color contributions, based on the assumption that the higher-loop soft anomalous…

Recent progress in the computation of one-loop gluon amplitudes is reviewed. These methods were originally derived from superstring theory and are significantly more efficient than conventional Feynman rules. With these methods, explicit…

We study the first non-planar correction to gluon scattering amplitudes in ${\cal N}=4$ SYM theory. The correction takes the form of a double trace partial amplitude and is suppressed by one power of $1/N$ with respect to the leading single…

We investigate the embedding formalism in conjunction with the Mellin transform to determine tree-level gluon amplitudes in AdS/CFT. Detailed computations of three to five-point correlators are conducted, ultimately distilling what were…

Calculation of amplitudes in perturbative quantum field theory involve large loop integrals. The complexity of those integrals, in combination with the large number of Feynman diagrams, make the calculations very difficult. Reduction…

Planar gluon amplitudes in N=4 SYM are remarkably similar to expectation values of Wilson loops made of light-like segments. We argue that the latter can be determined by making use of the conformal symmetry of the gauge theory, broken by…

We compute the leading-color (planar) three-loop four-point amplitude of N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in 4 - 2 epsilon dimensions, as a Laurent expansion about epsilon = 0 including the finite terms. The amplitude was constructed…

Generalized-unitarity calculations of two-loop amplitudes are performed by expanding the amplitude in a basis of master integrals and then determining the coefficients by taking a number of generalized cuts. In this paper, we present a…
