Grassmannian Geometries for Non-Planar On-Shell Diagrams

Artyom Lisitsyn, Umut Oktem, Melissa Sherman-Bennett +1

On-shell diagrams are gauge invariant quantities which play an important role in the description of scattering amplitudes. Based on the principles of generalized unitarity, they ar…

Uniqueness of MHV Gravity Amplitudes

Joris Koefler, Umut Oktem, Shruti Paranjape +2

We investigate MHV tree-level gravity amplitudes as defined on the spinor-helicity variety. Unlike their gluon counterparts, the gravity amplitudes do not have logarithmic singular…

Multi-Loop Negative Geometries

Lance J. Dixon, Umut Oktem, Shruti Paranjape +3

Scattering amplitudes in planar supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory are dual to expectation values of null polygonal Wilson loops. The Amplituhedron provides a geometric…

The Muon Smasher's Guide

Hind Al Ali, Nima Arkani-Hamed, Ian Banta +31

We lay out a comprehensive physics case for a future high-energy muon collider, exploring a range of collision energies (from 1 to 100 TeV) and luminosities. We highlight the advan…

Scalar BCJ Bootstrap

Taro V. Brown, Karol Kampf, Umut Oktem +2

In this letter, we study tree-level scattering amplitudes of scalar particles in the context of effective field theories. We use tools similar to the soft bootstrap to build an ans…

Hidden Amplitude Zeros From Double Copy

Christoph Bartsch, Taro V. Brown, Karol Kampf +3

Recently, Arkani-Hamed et al. proposed the existence of zeros in scattering amplitudes in certain quantum field theories including the cubic adjoint scalar theory Tr(), the $…
