abstract
A formalism is provided to calculate tree amplitudes in open superstring theory for any multiplicity at any order in the inverse string tension. We point out that the underlying world-sheet disk integrals share substantial properties with color-ordered tree amplitudes in Yang-Mills field theories. In particular, we closely relate world-sheet integrands of open-string tree amplitudes to the Kawai-Lewellen-Tye representation of supergravity amplitudes. This correspondence helps to reduce the singular parts of world-sheet disk integrals -including their string corrections- to lower-point results. The remaining regular parts are systematically addressed by polylogarithm manipulations.

Gauge invariance, locality, and cyclicity uniquely fix dimension-raising operators for zero-transcendentality bosonic string amplitudes, yielding recursive construction from Yang-Mills and factorization via inverse operators at finite alpha'.
All-multiplicity building blocks for AdS string amplitudes are defined by dressing flat-space integrals with polylogarithms, yielding derived monodromy relations for open strings and KLT factorization for closed strings.
