On the Numerical Evaluation of One-Loop Amplitudes: The Glunonic Case
Prof. Giulia Zanderighi (University of Oxford)


We discuss how to compute one-loop amplitudes in QCD by combining unitarity in higher dimension with tree level recursions.
We show that all N-gluon one-loop helicity amplitudes can be computed numerically for arbitrary N with an algorithm which has a mild, polynomial growth in N.
