Schubert problems, positivity and symbol letters
We propose a geometrical approach to generate symbol letters of amplitudes/integrals in planar N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 Super Yang-Mills theory, known as Schubert problems. Beginning with one-loop integrals, we find that intersections of lines in momentum

Duals of Feynman Integrals. Part II. Generalized unitarity
The first paper of this series introduced objects (elements of twisted relative cohomology) that are Poincaré dual to Feynman integrals. We show how to use the pairing between these spaces — an algebraic invariant called the intersection number — to ...

Smoothly splitting amplitudes and semi-locality
In this paper, we study a novel behavior developed by certain tree-level scalar scattering amplitudes, including the biadjoint, NLSM, and special Galileon, when a subset of kinematic invariants vanishes without producing a singularity.

Stokes polytopes: the positive geometry for ϕ 4 interactions
In a remarkable recent work [1], the amplituhedron program was extended to the realm of non-supersymmetric scattering amplitudes. In particular it was shown that for tree-level planar diagrams in massless ϕ 3 theory (and its close cousin, bi-adjoint ϕ 3 ...

An etude on recursion relations and triangulations
Following [1], we derive a recursion relation by applying a one-parameter deformation of kinematic variables for tree-level scattering amplitudes in bi-adjoint ϕ 3 theory.

Elliptic K3 surfaces at infinite complex structure and their refined Kulikov models
Motivated by the Swampland Distance and the Emergent String Conjecture of Quantum Gravity, we analyse the infinite distance degenerations in the complex structure moduli space of elliptic K3 surfaces. All complex degenerations of K3 surfaces are known to

Algebraic surfaces, four-folds and moonshine
The aim of this note is to point out an interesting fact related to the elliptic genus of complex algebraic surfaces in the context of Mathieu moonshine. We also discuss the case of 4-folds.

Numerical metrics, curvature expansions and Calabi-Yau manifolds
We discuss the extent to which numerical techniques for computing approximations to Ricci-flat metrics can be used to investigate hierarchies of curvature scales on Calabi-Yau manifolds.

Scattering forms, worldsheet forms and amplitudes from subspaces
We present a general construction of two types of differential forms, based on any (n−3)-dimensional subspace in the kinematic space of n massless particles.

On positive geometry and scattering forms for matter particles
We initiate the study of positive geometry and scattering forms for tree- level amplitudes with matter particles in the (anti-)fundamental representation of the color/flavor group.
