We present a field theoretical proof of the conjectured KLT relation which states that the full tree-level scattering amplitude of gluons can be written as a product of color-ordered amplitude of gluons and color-ordered amplitude of scalars with only cubic vertex. To give a proof we establish the KK relation and BCJ relation of color-ordered scalar amplitude using BCFW recursion relation with nonzero boundary contributions. As a byproduct, an off-shell version of fundamental BCJ relation is proved, which plays an important role in our work.

  1. Dyeing form factors as amplitudes

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    A dyeing procedure maps form factors to colored amplitudes, recovering the originals by bleaching and explaining double-copy features through standard BCJ relations.

  2. Hidden Zeros and $2$-split via BCFW Recursion Relation

    hep-th 2025-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Hidden zeros in NLSM amplitudes are proven via modified BCFW recursion, with 2-split holding only under careful current definition.
