Learning the simplicity of scattering amplitudes by Clifford Cheung, Aurélien Dersy, Matthew D. Schwartz

“…The resulting framework is capable of reducing expressions with hundreds of terms—a regular occurrence in quantum field theory calculations—to vastly simpler equivalent expressions. Starting from lengthy input expressions, our networks can generate the Parke-Taylor formula for five-point gluon scattering, as well as new compact expressions for five-point amplitudes involving scalars and gravitons. …”

On a Newton-Type Method for Differential-Algebraic Equations by S. Amat, M. J. Légaz, P. Pedregal

“…In seeking to minimize the error, by using standard descent schemes, the procedure can never get stuck in local minima but will always and steadily decrease the error until getting to the solution sought. Starting with an initial approximation to the solution, we improve it by adding the solution of some associated linear problems, in such a way that the error is significantly decreased. …”
