摘要
We present analytic results for the finite diagrams contributing to the two-loop eight-point MHV scattering amplitude of planar N = 4 SYM. We use a recently proposed representation for the integrand of the amplitude in terms of (momentum) twistors and focus on a restricted kinematics in which the answer depends only on two independent cross-ratios. The theory of motives can be used to vastly simplify the results, which can be expressed as simple combinations of classical polylogarithms.
