Abstract 摘要 |
n-gluon scattering amplitudes are usually represented by Feynman diagrams. In this talk, I will discuss a completely different diagrammatic description based on the CHY theory. Whereas Feynman diagrams build up the final amplitufe from local interactions and propagations, pfaffian diagrams give an integral approach describing the final result in one shot. They may be thought of as a way to regroup Feynman diagrams with similar numerators in the amplitude. This regrouping produce subsets of diagrams that are gauge-invariant for n-2 gluons, a property that is very useful in checking correctness of the calculation. Since the amplitude has been partly processed, Pfaffian diagrams often give rise to fewer number of terms than Feynman diagrams. |
