# Scattering amplitude annihilators

## TL;DR

This paper demonstrates that specific second order differential operators annihilate Yang-Mills and General Relativity tree scattering amplitudes, confirming a conjecture about hidden conformal symmetry in GR.

## Contribution

It proves a conjecture that certain differential operators annihilate scattering amplitudes, revealing hidden conformal symmetry in GR.

## Key findings

- Second order operators annihilate YM and GR amplitudes
- Confirmation of a conjecture on hidden conformal symmetry in GR
- New mathematical tools for analyzing scattering amplitudes

## Abstract

Several second order differential operators are shown to annihilate the YM and GR tree scattering amplitudes. In particular we prove a conjecture of Loebbert, Mojaza and Plefka from their investigation of a hidden conformal symmetry in GR.
