In the high-energy limit, we compute the gauge-invariant three-parton forward clusters, which in the BFKL theory constitute the tree parts of the NNLO impact factors. In the triple collinear limit, we obtain the polarized double-splitting functions. For the unpolarized and the spin-correlated double-splitting functions, our results agree with the ones obtained by Campbell-Glover and Catani-Grazzini, respectively. In addition, we compute the four-gluon forward cluster, which in the BFKL theory forms the tree part of the NNNLO gluonic impact factor. In the quadruple collinear limit we obtain the unpolarized triple-splitting functions, while in the limit of a three-parton central cluster we derive the Lipatov vertex for the production of three gluons, relevant for the calculation of a BFKL ladder at NNLL accuracy. Finally, motivated by the reorganization of the color in the high-energy limit, we introduce a color decomposition of the purely gluonic tree amplitudes in terms of the linearly independent subamplitudes only.

    N-body modeling indicates Gaia BH3 formed as an exchange binary via dynamical interactions in the ED-2 progenitor cluster.

  2. Amplitudes in self-dual (higher-spin) theories

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    All self-dual theories with or without higher-spin fields possess nontrivial tree-level amplitudes in Kleinian or complex Minkowski kinematics, completing the celestial analogue of the higher-spin duality.

    N-body modeling of the ED-2 progenitor shows Gaia BH3 formed as an exchange binary via multiple dynamical interactions in a dense cluster, not in isolation.
