Certain classical field theories admit a formal multi-particle solution, known as the perturbiner expansion, that serves as a generating function for all the tree-level scattering amplitudes and the Berends-Giele recursion relations they satisfy. In this paper it is argued that the minimal model for the $L_{\infty}$-algebra that governs a classical field theory contains enough information to determine the perturbiner expansion associated to such theory. This gives a prescription for computing the tree-level scattering amplitudes by inserting the perturbiner solution into the homotopy Maurer-Cartan action for the $L_{\infty}$-algebra. We confirm the method in the non-trivial examples of bi-adjoint scalar and Yang-Mills theories.

  1. Color-factor symmetry using perturbiner methods for tree-level amplitudes of Yang-Mills theory coupled to matter

    hep-th 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0

    Perturbiner recursion proves color-factor symmetry (hence BCJ relations) for all tree-level YM+matter amplitudes with at least one gluon.

  2. Color-factor symmetry using perturbiner methods for tree-level amplitudes of Yang-Mills theory coupled to matter

    hep-th 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0

    A new perturbiner proof shows tree-level Yang-Mills amplitudes with any number of fundamental scalars or spinors and at least one gluon are invariant under color-factor shifts, yielding BCJ relations.

  3. The bi-adjoint scalar $\ell$-loop planar integrand recursion and graded inverse variables

    hep-th 2025-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A new formalism with graded inverse variables refines the ℓ-loop planar integrand recursion in bi-adjoint scalar theory, allowing graph factors and symmetry factors to be read directly from monomials.

  4. Systematic approach to $\ell$-loop planar integrands from the classical equation of motion

    hep-th 2025-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A recursion formula for ℓ-loop planar integrands in colored QFTs is derived from the classical equation of motion via comb components and loop kernels.
