Scattering amplitudes and hidden symmetries in supersymmetric gauge theory — •Jan Plefka — Institut für Physik, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin

We give a brief introduction to four dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories and their holographic description in terms of a higher dimensional string theory known as the AdS/CFT correspondence. The focus of the talk will then be on an overview of recent results for scattering amplitudes in this setting, their string dual description and the emergence of hidden symmetries pointing towards an integrable structure of maximally supersymmetric gauge theory.
