abstract

We discuss the structure of infrared singularities in on-shell QCD amplitudes at two-loop order. We present a general factorization formula that controls all the $\ep$-poles of the dimensionally regularized amplitudes. The dependence on the regularization scheme is considered and the coefficients of the $1/\ep^4, 1/\ep^3$ and $1/\ep^2$ poles are explicitly given in the most general case. The remaining single-pole contributions are also explicitly evaluated in the case of amplitudes with a $q{\bar q}$ pair.

Bootstrapping two-loop six-gluon amplitudes in QCD

hep-ph · 2026-06-26 · unverdicted · novelty 8.0

A symbol bootstrap using leading singularities determines the maximal-weight symbol of the planar two-loop six-gluon amplitude in massless QCD for MHV configurations.

Walking Sudakov: From Cusp to Octagon

hep-th · 2026-05-15 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

In a novel scaling limit on the Coulomb branch of planar N=4 SYM, the Sudakov form factor and four-point amplitude exhibit double-logarithmic behavior governed by a walking anomalous dimension that interpolates between cusp and octagon anomalous dimensions, with proposed all-loop expressions relying

All-loop four-quark Bethe-Salpeter kernel

hep-ph · 2026-05-06 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

The all-loop bare perturbative part of the four-quark Bethe-Salpeter kernel is computed analytically in the large-Nf limit of massless QCD.

$N$-Jettiness Soft Functions Made Simple

hep-ph · 2026-04-14 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

A decomposition splits the most singular dipole term of the N-jettiness soft function into an inclusive soft function and a remainder that is absent at NLO, finite at NNLO, and subtractable at N3LO, enabling NNLO results for up to five jets.

Progress on the soft anomalous dimension in QCD

hep-ph · 2026-04-21 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

A lightcone-expansion strategy using Wilson-line correlators and the Method of Regions yields the three-loop soft anomalous dimension for QCD amplitudes with one massive colored particle and arbitrary massless ones.
