abstract
Perturbative scattering amplitudes in Yang-Mills theory have many unexpected properties, such as holomorphy of the maximally helicity violating amplitudes. To interpret these results, we Fourier transform the scattering amplitudes from momentum space to twistor space, and argue that the transformed amplitudes are supported on certain holomorphic curves. This in turn is apparently a consequence of an equivalence between the perturbative expansion of ${\cal N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory and the $D$-instanton expansion of a certain string theory, namely the topological $B$ model whose target space is the Calabi-Yau supermanifold $\Bbb{CP}^{3|4}$.

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.
A worldline path integral model for higher-spin gravity in AdS4 is constructed using twistor actions and double-line vertices, reproducing boundary correlators of free boson and fermion vector models.
On-shell three-point bootstrap recovers Weyl, chiral, diffeomorphism and Lorentz anomalies up to constant prefactors and reproduces gauge-anomaly cancellation while excluding Pontryagin densities from the Weyl anomaly.
The classical limit of five-dimensional spinning amplitudes reproduces the multipole expansion of five-dimensional black holes after augmenting with the Hodge dual of the spin tensor, and identifies amplitudes corresponding to the Myers-Perry solution.
A permutation-equivariant transformer trained on self-supervised oracle trajectories from scrambled expressions achieves near-perfect simplification rates for dilogarithms and 100% success on 5-point gluon scattering amplitudes with over 200 terms.
Non-commutative 5d Chern-Simons theory on the spinor bundle compactifies to the KP equation, with vanishing tree amplitudes and W_{1+∞} defect algebra reducing to w_{1+∞} in the dispersionless limit.

S-matrix consistency forces the complete gluon amplitude structure and requires Yang-Mills Lie algebra plus Higgs mechanism for unitarised massive vector boson scattering.
The chiral algebra bootstrap yields all-loop splitting functions for self-dual N=4 SYM, a proof of no double-pole OPEs, and novel two-loop form factors with anti-self-dual field strength insertions.
A new Super-Grassmannian integral formalism for N=1 SCFT3 correlators enforces symmetries manifestly and relates all component functions to one, enabling construction of AdS4 gluon correlators from gluino ones.
N-body modeling indicates Gaia BH3 formed as an exchange binary via dynamical interactions in the ED-2 progenitor cluster.
Authors construct canonical and path-integral quantizations for QFT in Klein space using extra modes, deriving correlation functions that match Minkowski space via analytical continuation.

The bosonic ambitwistor string spectrum is confined to the massless sector and contains the dilaton, metric, Kalb-Ramond field plus an extra vector, but is non-unitary.
