Causality and singularities of multiloop scattering amplitudes from the loop-tree duality

We make a short review of the loop-tree duality and show how the loop-tree duality leads to integrand representations of multiloop scattering amplitudes which are manifestly causal. The causal representation provides, moreover, a poweful tool to easily identify the singularities of the scattering amplitudes. It also represents a benchmark example to introduce quantum computing and quantum algorithms.
