The seven-gluon two-loop full-color Yang-Mills amplitude is presented in a compact analytic form where we use the methods of four-dimensional unitarity cuts to obtain the polylogarithmic pieces and augmented recursion to obtain the rational…
In this letter we compute a canonical set of cuts of the integrand for MHV amplitudes in planar ${\cal N}=4$ SYM, where all internal propagators are put on-shell. These "deepest cuts" probe the most complicated Feynman diagrams and on-shell…
In this paper, we consider the triangulation of 2-loop MHV amplituhedron from "sign flip" definition. Using the isomorphism between $m=2, k=2$ tree amplituhedron and 1-loop MHV physical amplituhedron, we found the direct triangulation of…
We compute a family of scalar loop diagrams in $AdS$. We use the spectral representation to derive various bulk vertex/propagator identities, and these identities enable to reduce certain loop bubble diagrams to lower loop diagrams, and…
Chas and Sullivan recently defined an intersection product on the homology $H_*(LM)$ of the space of smooth loops in a closed, oriented manifold $M$. In this paper we will use the homotopy theoretic realization of this product described by…
We investigate analytic properties of loop-level perturbative dynamics in pure AdS, with the scalar effective theories with non-derivative couplings as a prototype. Explicit computations reveal certain (perhaps unexpected) simplicity…
Given a graph G, we construct a convex polytope whose face poset is based on marked subgraphs of G. Dubbed the graph multiplihedron, we provide a realization using integer coordinates. Not only does this yield a natural generalization of…
We provide two alternate settings for a family of varieties modeling the uniserial representations with fixed sequence of composition factors over a finite dimensional algebra. The first is a quasi-projective subvariety of a Grassmannian…
It is shown that the four-particle amplitude of superstring theory at two loops obtained in [1,2] is equivalent to the previously obtained results in [3,4,5]. Here the ${\bf Z}_2$ symmetry in hyperelliptic Riemann surface plays an important…
Recently Terwilliger and the present author found a presentation for the three-point $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ loop algebra via generators and relations. To obtain this presentation we defined a Lie algebra $\boxtimes$ by generators and relations…
The article is a contribution to the local theory of geometric Langlands correspondence. The main result is a categorification of the isomorphism between the (extended) affine Hecke algebra, thought of as an algebra of Iwahori bi-invariant…
It was recently proposed that the leading singularities of the S-Matrix of N = 4 super Yang-Mills theory arise as the residues of a contour integral over a Grassmannian manifold, with space-time locality encoded through residue theorems…
We determine the structure of the semisimple group algebra of certain groups over the rationals and over those finite fields where the Wedderburn decompositions have the least number of simple components. We apply our work to obtain similar…
On a (pseudo-)Riemannian manifold (MM,g), some fields of endomorphisms i.e. sections of End(TMM) may be parallel for g. They form an associative algebra A, which is also the commutant of the holonomy group of g. As any associative algebra,…
This thesis is divided in two parts. The first part contains the study of some properties of the electromagnetic duality in 4 dimensions. An extended double potential formalism for linearized gravity is introduced which allows to write an…
As in the case of the associahedron and cyclohedron, the permutohedron can also be defined as an appropriate compactification of a configuration space of points on an interval or on a circle. The construction of the compactification endows…
One of the many remarkable features of MHV scattering amplitudes is their conjectured equality to lightlike polygon Wilson loops, which apparently holds at all orders in perturbation theory as well as non-perturbatively. This duality is…
We construct a complex of toric varieties we call the quasisymmetric Grassmannian inside the Grassmannian of $r$-planes in $\mathbb{C}^n$. Each irreducible component is a positroid variety and an $S_n$ translate of a toric Richardson…
The collinear factorization properties of two-loop scattering amplitudes in dimensionally-regulated N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory suggest that, in the planar ('t Hooft) limit, higher-loop contributions can be expressed entirely in terms of…
Let $F$ be a totally real number field and $E/F$ a totally imaginary quadratic extension of $F$. Let $\Pi$ be a cohomological, conjugate self-dual cuspidal automorphic representation of $GL_n(\mathbb A_E)$. Under a certain non-vanishing…
