Topics: Quantum Chromodynamics, Scattering Amplitudes, Unitarity
Usually bootstrap approaches start with a naive ansatz: match all possible functions with all possible pre-factors. Prescriptive unitarity gives us a guiding principle in which all the finite IR parts are completely fixed. We bootstrap the remaining free coefficients by imposing consistency with physical limits.
Topics: Scattering Amplitudes, Leading Singularities, Surfaceology
We show that by gluing three-gluon amplitudes in QFT, we rediscover the combinatorial structure of curves on surfaces provided by surfaceology. Using some nice graphical arguments we can fix the expression for the exponents of closed curves.
Topics: QCD, Scattering Amplitudes, Bootstrap
A symbol-level bootstrap construction of planar two-loop six-gluon scattering amplitudes in QCD for the --++++ helicity configuration.
Topics: Wilson Loops, Scattering Amplitudes, N=4 SYM, Bootstrap
A two-loop bootstrap computation of the null hexagonal Wilson loop with a Lagrangian insertion in planar maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory.
Topics: BSM Phenomenology, Multi-Higgs Models
Topics: BSM Phenomenology, Multi-Higgs Models
We show that there is a decoupling limit in N-Higgs-doublet-models iff the vacuum preserves the family symmetry of the lagrangian.
