Abstract
In this talk I am going to discuss our recent and on-going work on an integral representation of tree-level S-matrices for massless particles. Starting from the formula for gravity amplitudes, I will introduce three operations acting on the integrand that produce compact and closed formulas for amplitudes in various other theories of massless bosons. In particular these includes Yang-Mills coupled to gravity, (Dirac)-Born-Infeld, U(N) non-linear sigma model, and Galileon theory. The main references are arXiv:1409.8256, arXiv:1412.3479.
