Tree-level $n$-point gauge-theory amplitudes with $n-2k$ gluons and $k$ pairs of (massless or massive) particles in the fundamental (or other) representation of the gauge group are invariant under a set of symmetries that act as momentum-dependent shifts on the color factors in the cubic decomposition of the amplitude. These symmetries lead to gauge-invariant constraints on the kinematic numerators. They also directly imply the BCJ relations among the Melia-basis primitive amplitudes previously obtained by Johansson and Ochirov.

  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.
