All-loop cuts from the Amplituhedron

The definition of the amplituhedron in terms of sign flips involves both one-loop constraints and the “mutual positivity” constraint. To gain an understanding of the all-loop integrand of <span class="mathjax-tex">\( \mathcal{N}=4 \)</span> sYM requires understanding the crucial role played by mutual positivity. This paper is an attempt towards developing a procedure to introduce the complexities of mutual positivity in a systematic and controlled manner. As the first step in this procedure, we trivialize these constraints and understand the geometry underlying the remaining constraints to all loops and multiplicities. We present a host of configurations which correspond to various faces of the amplituhedron. The results we derive are valid at all multiplicities and loop orders for the maximally helicity violating (MHV) configurations. These include detailed derivations for the results in. We conclude by indicating how one might move beyond trivial mutual positivity by presenting a series of configuration which re-introduce it bit by bit.
