We review, in a self-contained and pedagogical manner, recent developments and techniques for the evaluation of the scattering amplitudes of planar N=4 SYM theory at both weak and strong coupling. Special emphasis is placed on the newly discovered connection between a special class of amplitudes and the expectation values of particular cusped light-like Wilson loops.

  1. Form factors of $\mathscr{N}=4$ self-dual Yang-Mills from the chiral algebra bootstrap

    hep-th 2026-04 conditional novelty 7.0

    The chiral algebra bootstrap yields all-loop splitting functions for self-dual N=4 SYM, a proof of no double-pole OPEs, and novel two-loop form factors with anti-self-dual field strength insertions.
