CHY-construction of Planar Loop Integrands of Cubic Scalar Theory
Abstract
In this paper, by treating massive loop momenta to massless momenta in higher dimension, we are able to treat all-loop scattering equations as tree ones. As an application of the new aspect, we consider the CHY-construction of bi-adjoint phi3 theory. We present the explicit formula for two-loop planar integrands. We discuss carefully how to subtract various forward singularities in the construction. We count the number of terms obtained by our formula and by direct Feynman diagram calculation and find the perfect match, thus provide a strong support for our results.
