abstract

We derive an explicit formula for factorizing an $n$-point closed string amplitude into open string amplitudes. Our results are phrased in terms of a momentum kernel which in the limit of infinite string tension reduces to the corresponding field theory kernel. The same momentum kernel encodes the monodromy relations which lead to the minimal basis of color-ordered amplitudes in Yang-Mills theory. There are interesting consequences of the momentum kernel pertaining to soft limits of amplitudes. We also comment on surprising links between gravity and certain combinations of kinematic and color factors in gauge theory.

String Theory from Maximal Supersymmetry

hep-th · 2026-01-16 · conditional · novelty 8.0

The open string Veneziano amplitude emerges as the unique tree-level completion of N=4 super Yang-Mills when supersymmetry, factorization, and positivity are imposed.

Twisted de Rham theory for string double copy in AdS

hep-th · 2025-12-29 · conditional · novelty 8.0

Noncommutative twisted de Rham theory derives the intersection number of open-string contours whose inverse is the double-copy kernel for four-point AdS string generating functions.

Resurgence of high-energy string amplitudes

hep-th · 2026-04-08 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

High-energy string amplitudes have asymptotic expansions governed by Bernoulli numbers, upgraded via resurgence to transseries whose Stokes data encode non-perturbative monodromy between kinematic regions.
