We analyze the pentagon transitions involving arbitrarily many flux-tube gluonic excitations and bound states thereof in planar N=4 Super-Yang-Mills theory. We derive all-loop expressions for all these transitions by factorization and fusion of the elementary transitions for the lightest gluonic excitations conjectured in a previous paper. We apply the proposals so obtained to the computation of MHV and NMHV scattering amplitudes at any loop order and find perfect agreement with available perturbative data up to four loops.

  1. Landau Analysis of One-Cycle Negative Geometries

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    One-cycle negative geometries in N=4 SYM have singularities only at z=-1, 0, and infinity to all loop orders.

  2. 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.
