Recursion Relations for Tree Amplitudes in Super Gauge Theories

Using newly proposed BCF/BCFW recursion relations, compact formulas are obtained for tree-level n-gluon amplitudes of helicity structure --++...+. We then make an extension of these recursion relations to include fermions of multi-flavors, from which MHV and \bar{MHV} amplitudes are reproduced. We also calculate non-MHV amplitudes of processes with two fermions and four gluons. Results thus obtained are equivalent to those obtained by extended CSW prescriptions, and those by conventional field theory calculations.

Compact Formulas for Tree Amplitudes of Six Partons

Compact results are obtained for tree-level non-MHV amplitudes of six fermions and of four fermions and two gluons, by using extended BCF/BCFW rules. Combining with previous results, complete set of tree amplitudes of six partons are now available in compact forms.

Systematics of One-Loop Scattering Amplitudes in N=4 Super Yang-Mills Theories

One-loop scattering amplitudes in N=4 super Yang-Mills (SYM) theories are analyzed in the paradigm of maximal helicity violating Feynman diagrams. There are very limited number of loop integrals to be evaluated. For a process with n external particles, there are only [n/2]-1 generically independent integrals. Furthermore, the relations between leading N_c amplitudes A_{n;1} and sub-leading amplitudes A_{n;c} are found to be identical to those obtained from conventional field theory calculations, which can be interpreted as an indirect support for the paradigm.

One-Loop Maximal Helicity Violating Amplitudes in N=4 Super Yang-Mills Theories

One-loop maximal helicity violating (MHV) amplitudes in N=4 super Yang-Mills (SYM) theories are analyzed, using the prescription of Cachazo, Svrcek, and Witten (CSW). The relations between leading N_c amplitudes A_{n;1} and sub-leading amplitudes A_{n;c} obtained by the CSW prescription are found to be identical to those obtained from conventional field theory calculations. Combining with existing results, this establishes the validity of the CSW prescription to one-loop in the calculation of MHV amplitudes in N=4 SYM theories of finite N_c.
