We present the fully integrated form of the two-loop four-gluon amplitude in $mathcal{N} = 2$ supersymmetric quantum chromodynamics with gauge group SU$(N_c)$ and with $N_f$ massless supersymmetric quarks (hypermultiplets) in the fundamental representation. Our result maintains full dependence on $N_c$ and $N_f$, and relies on the existence of a compact integrand representation that exhibits the duality between color and kinematics. Specializing to the $mathcal{N} = 2$ superconformal theory, where $N_f = 2N_c$ , we obtain remarkably simple amplitudes that have an analytic structure close to that of $mathcal{N} = 4$ super-Yang-Mills theory, except that now certain lower-weight terms appear. We comment on the corresponding results for other gauge groups.

We present the complete formula for the cusp anomalous dimension at four loops in QCD and in maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills. In the latter theory it is given by begin{equation} {Gamma}^{rm}_{rm cusp}Big|_{alpha_s^4} = -left( frac{alpha_s N}{pi }right)^4 left[ frac{73 pi^6}{20160} + frac{ zeta_{3}^2}{8} + frac{1}{N^2} left( frac{31pi^6}{5040} + frac{9 zeta_3^2}{4} right) right] ,. onumber end{equation} Our approach is based on computing the correlation function of a rectangular light-like Wilson loop with a Lagrangian insertion, normalized by the expectation value of the Wilson loop. In maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, this ratio is a finite function of a cross-ratio and the coupling constant. We compute it to three loops, including the full colour dependence. Integrating over the position of the Lagrangian insertion gives the four-loop Wilson loop. We extract its leading divergence, which determines the four-loop cusp anomalous dimension. Finally, we employ a supersymmetric decomposition to derive the last missing ingredient in the corresponding QCD result.
We develop an iterative method for constructing four-dimensional generalized unitarity cuts in $mathcal{N} = 2$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory coupled to fundamental matter hypermultiplets ($mathcal{N} = 2$ SQCD). For iterated two-particle cu ts,specifically those involving only four-point amplitudes, this implies simple diagrammatic rules for assembling the cuts to any loop order, reminiscent of the rung rule in $mathcal{N} = 4$ SYM. By identifying physical poles, the construction simplifies the task of extracting complete integrands. In combination with the duality between color and kinematics we construct all four-point massless MHV-sector scattering amplitudes up to two loops in $mathcal{N} = 2$ SQCD, including those with matter on external legs. Our results reveal chiral infrared-finite integrands closely related to those found using loop-level BCFW recursion. The integrands are valid in $Dleq 6$ dimensions with external states in a four-dimensional subspace; the upper bound is dictated by our use of six-dimensional chiral $mathcal{N} = (1,0)$ SYM as a means of dimensionally regulating loop integrals.
We consider scattering processes involving N gluonic massless states of open superstrings with certain Regge slope alpha. At the semi-classical level, the string world-sheet sweeps a disk and N gluons are created or annihilated at the boundary. We pr esent exact expressions for the corresponding amplitudes, valid to all orders in alpha, for the so-called maximally helicity violating configurations, with N=4, 5 and N=6. We also obtain the leading O(alpha^2) string corrections to the zero-slope N-gluon Yang-Mills amplitudes.
We present the analytic evaluation of the two-loop corrections to the amplitude for the scattering of four fermions in Quantum Electrodynamics, $f^- + f^+ + F^- + F^+ to 0$, with $f$ and $F$ representing a massless and a massive lepton, respectively. Dimensional regularization is employed to evaluate the loop integrals. Ultraviolet divergences are removed by renormalizing the coupling constant in the ${overline{text{MS}}}$-scheme, and the lepton mass as well as the external fields in the on-shell scheme. The analytic result for the renormalized amplitude is expressed as Laurent series around $d=4$ space-time dimensions, and contains Generalized Polylogarithms with up to weight four. The structure of the residual infrared divergences of the virtual amplitude is in agreement with the prediction of the Soft Collinear Effective Theory. Our analytic results are an essential ingredient for the computation of the scattering cross section for massive fermion-pair production in massless fermion-pair annihilation, i.e. $f^- f^+ to F^- F^+$, and crossing related processes such as the elastic scattering $f F to f F$, with up to Next-to-Next to Leading Order accuracy.
In K.~Hieda, A.~Kasai, H.~Makino, and H.~Suzuki, Prog. Theor. Exp. Phys. textbf{2017}, 063B03 (2017), a properly normalized supercurrent in the four-dimensional (4D) $mathcal{N}=1$ super Yang--Mills theory (SYM) that works within on-mass-shell correl ation functions of gauge-invariant operators is expressed in a regularization-independent manner by employing the gradient flow. In the present paper, this construction is extended to the supercurrent in the 4D $mathcal{N}=2$ SYM. The so-constructed supercurrent will be useful, for instance, for fine tuning of lattice parameters toward the supersymmetric continuum limit in future lattice simulations of the 4D $mathcal{N}=2$ SYM.
