Planar matrices and arrays of Feynman diagrams:poles for higher k

扫码查看
Planar arrays of tree diagrams were introduced as a generalization of Feynman diagrams that enable the computation of biadjoint amplitudes mn(k)for k>2.In this follow-up work,we investigate the poles ofmn(k)from the perspective of such arrays.For general k,we characterize the underlying polytope as a Flag Complex and propose a computation of the amplitude-based solely on the knowledge of the poles,whose number is drastically less than the number of the full arrays.As an example,we first provide all the poles for the cases(k,n)=(3,7),(3,8),(3,9),(3,10),(4,8)and(4,9)in terms of their planar arrays of degenerate Feynman diagrams.We then implement simple compatibility criteria together with an addition operation between arrays and recover the full collections/arrays for such cases.Along the way,we implement hard and soft kinematical limits,which provide a map between the poles in kinematic space and their combinatoric arrays.We use the operation to give a proof of a previously conjectured combinatorial duality for arrays in(k,n)and(n-k,n).We also outline the relation to boundary maps of the hypersimplex △k,n and rays in the tropical Grassmannian Tr(k,n).
