We illustrate the use of recursion relations in the computation of certain one-loop helicity amplitudes containing an arbitrary number of gauge bosons. After a brief review of the recursion relations themselves, we discuss the resolution of…

We show that one-loop amplitudes in massless gauge theories can be determined from single cuts. By cutting a single propagator and putting it on-shell, the integrand of an n-point one-loop integral is transformed into an (n+2)-particle tree…
