Infrared singularities of scattering amplitudes in perturbative QCD
read the original abstract
An exact formula is derived for the infrared singularities of dimensionally regularized scattering amplitudes in massless QCD with an arbitrary number of legs, valid at any number of loops. It is based on the conjecture that the anomalous-dimension matrix of n-jet operators in soft-collinear effective theory contains only a single non-trivial color structure, whose coefficient is the cusp anomalous dimension of Wilson loops with light-like segments. Its color-diagonal part is characterized by two anomalous dimensions, which are extracted to three-loop order from known perturbative results for the quark and gluon form factors. This allows us to predict the three-loop coefficients of all 1/epsilon^k poles for an arbitrary n-parton scattering amplitudes, generalizing existing two-loop results.

Two-loop leading-color QCD corrections for Higgs plus two-jet production in the heavy-top limit
Analytic expressions for the finite remainders of two-loop leading-color helicity amplitudes in Higgs plus two-jet production are obtained in the heavy-top effective theory using numerical unitarity and a new partial-...

$N$-Jettiness Soft Functions Made Simple
A decomposition splits the most singular dipole term of the N-jettiness soft function into an inclusive soft function and a remainder that is absent at NLO, finite at NNLO, and subtractable at N3LO, enabling NNLO resu...

Operator structure of power corrections and anomalous scaling in energy correlators
Linear power corrections in energy correlators have a universal anomalous scaling because the dijet operator must be combined with a triple-jet component at one-loop order.

On Carrollian Loop Amplitudes for Gauge Theory and Gravity
Loop-level Carrollian amplitudes in N=4 SYM and N=8 supergravity are differential operators on tree-level versions, with logarithmic eikonal behavior and IR-safe factorization via natural splitting.

On Carrollian Loop Amplitudes for Gauge Theory and Gravity
Loop-level Carrollian amplitudes in gauge theory and gravity preserve tree-level structures, show logarithmic dependence in the eikonal regime, and factorize to yield an IR-safe definition.
