| contents | Planar arrays of tree diagrams were introduced as a generalization of Feynman diagrams that enables the computation biadjoint amplitudes $m^{(k)}_n$ for $k>2$ . In this follow-up work we investigate the poles of $m^{(k)}_n$ from the perspective of such arrays. For general $k$ we characterize the underlying polytope as a Flag Complex and propose a computation of the amplitude based solely on the knowledge of poles, which number is drastically less than the number of full arrays. As an example we first provide all the poles for the cases $(k,n)=(3,7),(3,8),(4,8)$ and $(4,9)$ in terms of their generalized Feynman diagrams. We then implement a simple compatibility criteria together with an addition operation between arrays, and recover the full collections/arrays recently presented for such cases. Along the way we implement hard and soft kinematical limits, which provide a map between poles in kinematic space and their combinatoric arrays. We use the operation to give a proof of a previously conjectured combinatorial duality for arrays in $(k,n)$ and $(n-k,n)$. We also outline the relation to boundary maps of the hypersimplex $Δ_{k,n}$ and rays in the tropical Grassmannian $\textrm{Tr}(k,n)$. |
