The natural structure of scattering amplitudes

Manuel Accettulli Huber · 2018

In this thesis we present all the techniques needed for the functional reconstruction of univariate rational functions over Finite Fields and apply them to tree-level scattering amplitudes. In particular this procedure using the BCFW recursion as black-box algorithm is presented here for the first time. Furthermore, as a second novel result, we discuss some new aspects of the relation among BCFW tree-level recursion and the maximum-cut of multi-loop diagrams.
