Bootstrapping the String Kawai-Lewellen-Tye Kernel
ASK Chen, H Elvang, A Herderschee - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
We show that double-copy maps for amplitudes in effective field theory are severely
constrained at four points by self-consistency and locality at six points. The resulting double …
