Mellin Amplitude for $n$-Gluon Scattering in Anti-de Sitter

Abstract

In AdS/CFT, we introduce a robust method for computing $n$-point gluon Mellin amplitudes, applicable in various spacetime dimensions. Using the Mellin transform and a recursive algorithm, we efficiently calculate tree-level gluon amplitudes. Our approach simplifies the representation of higher-point amplitudes, eliminating the need for complicated integrations. Crucially, the resulting amplitudes closely mirror those in flat space, allowing a straightforward dictionary between the two settings circumventing explicit calculations.
