abstract

Scattering amplitudes in superconformal field theories do not enjoy this symmetry, because the definition of asymptotic states involve a notion of infinity. Concentrating on planar $\mathcal{N}=4$ Yang-Mills, we consider a generalization of scattering amplitudes which depends on twice as many Grassmann variables. We conjecture that it restores at least half of the superconformal symmetries, and all of the dual superconformal symmetries. The object arises naturally as the dual of a null polygonal Wilson loop in an $(x,\theta,\bar\theta)$ superspace. We support the conjecture by using it to obtain the total differential of all $n$-point two-loop MHV amplitudes, and showing that the result passes consistency checks. Potential all-loop constraints are also discussed.

  1. Higher-Point Correlators in N=4 SYM: Ten-Dimensional Null Polygons

    hep-th 2025-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A general two-loop formula is obtained for all n-point 10d null polygon correlators in planar N=4 SYM, expressed in a conformal-integral basis and verified numerically at 11 points.

  2. Double spacelike collinear limits from multi-Regge kinematics

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The double spacelike collinear limit of planar N=4 SYM is governed by a generalized splitting amplitude that equals the six-point BDS-subtracted amplitude in multi-Regge kinematics.

  3. Two-loop MHV Form Factors from the Periodic Wilson Loop

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The periodic Wilson loop duality is extended beyond one loop, yielding the two-loop n-particle MHV form factor integrand and new five- and six-particle symbols.
