| contents | In this note, we study the Hopf-algebra-based (HAB) formula of Yang-Mills-Scalar (YMS) amplitudes, which expands a YMS amplitude with massive scalars as a combination of propagator matrices that mix massless scalars corresponding to gluons with the original massive scalars. We propose a recursive formula which conveniently expresses the HAB formula. In this formula, gluons are converted into massless scalars. Thus it expresses a YMS amplitude with massive scalars by amplitudes with fewer gluons, massive scalars and massless scalars. We verify this formula by using soft behavior approach. In the massless limit, the HAB formula turns into expressions for YMS amplitudes with massless scalars which was earlier shown to satisfy an alternative recursive expansion formula. In this note, we show the equivalence of these two distinct approaches through explicit calculation on amplitudes with one and two gluons. |
