Twistor Space Structure Of One-Loop Amplitudes In Gauge Theory
We analyze the twistor space structure of certain one-loop amplitudes in gauge theory. For some amplitudes, we find decompositions that make the twistor structure manifest; for others, we explore the twistor space structure by finding differential equations that the
متن کاملGauge Theory Amplitudes In Twistor Space And Holomorphic Anomaly
We show that, in analyzing differential equations obeyed by one-loop gauge theory amplitudes, one must take into account a certain holomorphic anomaly. When this is done, the results are consistent with the simplest twistor-space picture of the available one-loop amplitudes.
متن کاملPerturbative Gauge Theory As A String Theory In Twistor Space
Perturbative scattering amplitudes in Yang-Mills theory have many unexpected properties, such as holomorphy of the maximally helicity violating amplitudes. To interpret these results, we Fourier transform the scattering amplitudes from momentum space to twistor space, and argue that the transformed amplitudes are supported on certain holomorphic curves. This in turn is apparently a consequence ...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Gauge Theories in Twistor Space
We construct a twistor space action for N = 4 super Yang-Mills theory and show that it is equivalent to its four dimensional spacetime counterpart at the level of perturbation theory. We compare our partition function to the original twistor-string proposal, showing that although our theory is closely related to string theory, it is free from conformal supergravity. We also provide twistor acti...
متن کاملInherited Twistor-Space Structure of Gravity Loop Amplitudes
At tree-level, gravity amplitudes are obtainable directly from gauge theory amplitudes via the Kawai, Lewellen and Tye closed-open string relations. We explain how the unitarity method allows us to use these relations to obtain coefficients of box integrals appearing in one-loop N = 8 supergravity amplitudes from the recent computation of the coefficients for N = 4 super-Yang-Mills nonmaximally...
