Gravity in Twistor Space and its Grassmannian Formulation
We prove the formula for the complete tree-level S-matrix of N=8 supergravity recently conjectured by two of the authors. The proof proceeds by showing that the new formula satisfies the same BCFW recursion relations that physical amplitudes are known to satisfy, with the same initial conditions. As...
