Mobius Transformations.. CHY cyclic invariant
14
CHY scalar Gauge boson gravity Trace color factors understood Checked consistency at poles, soft and collinear limits Expects cyclically invariant planar diagrams Double-colored
15
Independent of p,q,r and what p,q,r should I choose ?? but that destroys manifest cyclic symmetry gets much worse !
