Photon emission amplitudes in totally depleting flying focus beams equal a Gaussian average over momentum variables of the corresponding plane-wave amplitudes, obtained via conformal transformations of Volkov solutions.
Two-loop all-plus helicity amplitudes for self-dual Higgs boson with gluons via unitarity cut constraints

abstract
We present the two-loop amplitudes for a self-dual Higgs boson with up to four positive helicity gluons in the heavy top-quark limit. Because the tree amplitudes in the all-plus sector vanish, we can construct simple representations of the polylogarithmic parts of the two-loop amplitudes using four-dimensional unitarity cuts into rational one-loop and tree amplitudes. The remaining rational function ambiguity is extracted from a tensor integral reduction over finite fields. The final expressions are presented using polylogarithms up to weight two and compact rational functions of spinor-helicity products.

Analytic expressions for the finite remainders of two-loop leading-color helicity amplitudes in Higgs plus two-jet production are obtained in the heavy-top effective theory using numerical unitarity and a new partial-fraction algorithm.
Local subtraction reduces pseudo-evanescent Feynman integrals to products of one-loop integrals or one-fold integrals, with the finite part of the two-loop all-plus five-point amplitude arising solely from ultraviolet regions after infrared cancellations.

Pseudo-Evanescent Feynman Integrals from Local Subtraction
