"The amplituhedron has now given us a new description of planar N = 4 SYM amplitudes which does not have a usual space-time/quantum mechanical description, but does make all the symmetries manifest. This is not a âdualityâ in the usual sense, since we are not identifying an equivalence between existing theories with familiar physical interpretations. We are seeing something rather different: new mathematical structures for representing the physics without reference to standard physical ideas, but with all symmetries manifest. Might there be an analogous story for superstring scattering amplitudes?"
