Two-Loop Helicity Amplitudes for Gluon-Gluon Scattering in QCD and Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory
read the original abstract
We present the two-loop helicity amplitudes for the scattering of two gluons into two gluons in QCD, which are relevant for next-to-next-to-leading order corrections to jet production at hadron colliders. We give the results in the `t Hooft-Veltman and four-dimensional helicity variants of dimensional regularization. Summing our expressions over helicities and colors, and converting to conventional dimensional regularization, gives results in complete agreement with those of Glover, Oleari and Tejeda-Yeomans. We also present the amplitudes for 2 to 2 scattering in pure N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory.

Five legs @ three loops: N=4 sYM amplitude near mass-shell
Three-loop five-leg amplitude in planar N=4 sYM near mass shell is computed via 6D unitarity cuts and dimensional reduction, confirming IR exponentiation governed by octagon anomalous dimension with each of three kine...
