The S matrix of 6D super Yang-Mills and maximal supergravity from rational maps
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We present new formulas for n-particle tree-level scattering amplitudes of six-dimensional <em>N</em> = (1,1) super Yang-Mills (SYM) and <em>N</em> = (2,2) supergravity (SUGRA). They are written as integrals over the moduli space of certain rational maps localized on the (n – 3)! solutions of the scattering equations. Due to the properties of spinor-helicity variables in six dimensions, the even-<em>n</em> and odd-<em>n</em> formulas are quite different and have to be treated separately. We first propose a manifestly supersymmetric expression for the even-<em>n</em> amplitudes of <em>N</em> = (1,1) SYM theory and perform various consistency checks. By considering soft-gluon limits of the even-<em>n</em> amplitudes, we deduce the form of the rational maps and the integrand for <em>n</em> odd. The odd-<em>n</em> formulas obtained in this way have a new redundancy that is intertwined with the usual SL(2, C) invariance on the Riemann sphere. We also propose an alternative form of the formulas, analogous to the Witten-RSV formulation, and explore its relationship with the symplectic (or Lagrangian) Grassmannian. Since the amplitudes are formulated in a way that manifests double-copy properties, formulas for the six-dimensional <em>N</em> = (2,2) SUGRA amplitudes follow. Furthermore, these six-dimensional results allow us to deduce new formulas for five-dimensional SYM and SUGRA amplitudes, as well as massive amplitudes of four-dimensional <em>N</em> = 4 SYM on the Coulomb branch.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
