A formalism is provided to calculate tree amplitudes in open superstring theory for any multiplicity at any order in the inverse string tension. We point out that the underlying world-sheet disk integrals share substantial properties with color-ordered tree amplitudes in Yang-Mills field theories. In particular, we closely relate world-sheet integrands of open-string tree amplitudes to the Kawai-Lewellen-Tye representation of supergravity amplitudes. This correspondence helps to reduce the singular parts of world-sheet disk integrals -including their string corrections- to lower-point results. The remaining regular parts are systematically addressed by polylogarithm manipulations.

  1. Resurgence of high-energy string amplitudes

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    High-energy string amplitudes have asymptotic expansions governed by Bernoulli numbers, upgraded via resurgence to transseries whose Stokes data encode non-perturbative monodromy between kinematic regions.

  2. Uniqueness and Analytic Structures of Bosonic String Effective Amplitudes

    hep-th 2026-07 unverdicted novelty 6.0

  3. Single-valued polylogarithms for higher genera

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Single-valued polylogarithms are constructed on higher-genus once-punctured Riemann surfaces with trivial monodromy, related to prior work and used to identify the Arakelov Green's function.

  4. All-multiplicity monodromy and KLT relations for AdS string integrals

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    All-multiplicity building blocks for AdS string amplitudes are defined by dressing flat-space integrals with polylogarithms, yielding derived monodromy relations for open strings and KLT factorization for closed strings.
