abstract

We introduce two new graphical-level relations among possible contributions to the four-point correlation function and scattering amplitude in planar, maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. When combined with the rung rule, these prove powerful enough to fully determine both functions through ten loops. This then also yields the full five-point amplitude to eight loops and the parity-even part to nine loops. We derive these rules, illustrate their applications, compare their relative strengths for fixing coefficients, and survey some of the features of the previously unknown nine and ten loop expressions. Explicit formulae for amplitudes and correlators through ten loops are available at: http://goo.gl/JH0yEc.

Bootstrapping Giant Graviton Correlators

hep-th · 2026-05-14 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0 · 2 refs

Bootstrap using labelled f-graphs, double-triangle and triangle rules, integrated correlators, and 10D hidden symmetry uniquely fixes three-loop mixed GGOO correlators in N=4 SYM, reproducing known two-loop results and yielding new three-loop terms for the maximal determinant operator.

Loops and legs: ABJM amplitudes from $f$-graphs

hep-th · 2026-01-29 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

ABJM amplitudes of arbitrary multiplicity and loop order can be reconstructed from squared amplitudes encoded in a permutation-symmetric generating function of planar f-graphs.

Leading singularities and chambers of Correlahedron

hep-th · 2025-05-14 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Four-loop four-point correlator integrand in planar N=4 SYM decomposes into chamber forms identical to three loops times local integrands, with leading singularities as linear combinations of those forms and a diagonalized pure-function representation including one pure elliptic integrand.
