In this note we further investigate the procedure for computing tree-level amplitudes in Yang-Mills theory from connected instantons in the B-model on P^{3|4}, emphasizing that the problem of calculating Feynman diagrams is recast into the problem of finding solutions to a certain set of algebraic equations. We show that the B-model correctly reproduces all 6-particle amplitudes, including non-MHV amplitudes with three negative and three positive helicity gluons. As a further check, we also show that n-particle amplitudes obtained from the B-model obey a number of properties required of gauge theory, such as parity symmetry (which relates an integral over degree d curves to one over degree n-d-2 curves) and the soft and collinear gluon poles.

  1. Schwarzschild black holes from twistor space

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 8.0

    The Schwarzschild metric is derived as a Kähler metric on a holomorphic 'coincidence locus' within the twistor space of self-dual Taub-NUT, solving the googly problem for this specific spacetime.

  2. $N$-body modelling of the ED-2 stream progenitor shows Gaia BH3's formation involved dynamical interactions

    astro-ph.GA 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

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

  3. 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.

  4. $N$-body modelling of the ED-2 stream progenitor shows Gaia BH3's formation involved dynamical interactions

    astro-ph.GA 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    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.
