String-inspired methods have revealed deep connections between seemingly unrelated field theories. A striking example is the double copy structure, rooted in the string theory Kawai–Lewellen–Tye (KLT) relations. In this talk, we will explore how a variety of theories—including colored scalars, pions, and gluons—emerge from a single, unifying object: the KLT kernel. We will argue that this kernel is not only a powerful computational tool, but also a conceptually rich structure worthy of independent study.
Based mainly on https://arxiv.org/abs/1610.04230 and the recent work https://arxiv.org/abs/2505.01501.
