Yang-Mills gauge theory on Minkowski space supports a Batalin-Vilkovisky-infinity algebra structure, all whose operations are local. To make this work, the axioms for a BV-infinity algebra are deformed by a quadratic element, here the Minkowski wave operator. This homotopy structure implies BCJ/color-kinematics duality; a cobar construction yields a strict algebraic structure whose Feynman expansion for Yang-Mills tree amplitudes complies with the duality. It comes with a `syntactic kinematic algebra'.

  1. The Double Copy of Maximal Supersymmetry in $D=4$

    hep-th 2025-01 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    N=8 supergravity to cubic order is realized as the off-shell double copy of N=4 super Yang-Mills, with N=8 supersymmetry and SU(8) R-symmetry emerging from the two gauge factors.

  2. Full S-matrices and Witten diagrams with (relative) L-infinity algebras

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Cyclic relative L-infinity algebras encode the full S-matrix, including its trivial part, and reproduce Witten diagrams including CFT two-point functions.

  3. Off-shell double copy theories in BV

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A BV-formalism construction gives off-shell double-copy actions for Chern-Simons, BF, and 2D Yang-Mills theories, with Kodaira-Spencer and Kähler gravity as natural examples.

  4. HEFT Numerators from Kinematic Algebra

    hep-th 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The heavy-mass effective field theory kinematic numerators are derived as the field theory limit of nested commutators of string vertex operators, reproducing and extending earlier fusion-rule results.
