abstract
We present a calculation of the rational terms in two-loop all-plus gluon amplitudes using $D$-dimensional unitarity. We use a conjecture of separability of the two loops, and then a simple generalization of one-loop $D$-dimensional unitarity to perform calculations. We compute the four- and five-point rational terms analytically, and the six- and seven-point ones numerically. We find agreement with previous calculations of Dalgleish, Dunbar, Godwin, Jehu, Perkins, and Strong. For a special subleading-color amplitude, we compute the eight- and nine-point results numerically, and find agreement with an all-$n$ conjecture of Dunbar, Perkins, and Strong.

Serendipitous Syzygies of Scattering Amplitudes
For rational gluon amplitudes (one-loop all-plus and tree-level MHV), all (n-1)!/2 color-ordered partial amplitudes are determined by just two independent functions via polynomial syzygies.

Associativity is enough: an all-orders 2d chiral algebra for 4d form factors
Associativity and symmetry determine the all-loop 2d chiral algebra OPEs for twistorial self-dual Yang-Mills, with one coefficient, c, left only as an order-by-order solution.
