Scattering amplitudes from intersection theory
S Mizera - Physical Review Letters, 2018 - APS
We use Picard-Lefschetz theory to prove a new formula for intersection numbers of twisted
cocycles associated with a given arrangement of hyperplanes. In a special case when this …

Scattering equations in AdS: scalar correlators in arbitrary dimensions
A bstract We introduce a bosonic ambitwistor string theory in AdS space. Even though the
theory is anomalous at the quantum level, one can nevertheless use it in the classical limit to …
