In summary, the "MHV /Parke-Taylor/BCFW references" discuss the connections and methodologies related to specific frameworks in theoretical physics, particularly in the context of scattering amplitudes and string theory. These references highlight the use of the MHV (Maximally Helicity Violating) formalism, the Parke-Taylor formula for gluon scattering, and the BCFW (Britto-Cachazo-Feng-Witten) recursion relations, illustrating their significance in calculating particle interactions and simplifying complex quantum field theories.

I've been having some trouble finding good quality literature in regards to MHV and Parke-Taylor.

One of the better references I found being

https://www.ph.nat.tum.de/fileadmin/w00bya/ttpmath/pdf/sheet10-11.pdf

What I've having difficulty finding is the proofs for validity of the methodology specifically. Any recommendations appreciated.
Complexity of the literature isn't an issue the QFT mathematics wouldn't be an issue though string theory mathematics would be.
(Haven't looked at String theory in the last few years)

Many thanks for both links they both contain much of the relevant details Will take time to properly study though lol
