It is well-known that perturbative expansions of QFT observable suffer from infrared (IR) divergences both in the phase-space of real-emission contributions and in the loop amplitudes of virtual contributions. Traditionally, the two are handled separately through a combination of local subtraction counterterm and dimensional regularisation. Local Unitarity is an alternative formulation, using the Loop-Tree Duality (LTD) theorem, and leveraging the Kinoshita–Lee–Nauenberg (KLN) cancellation pattern to achieve a direct cancellation of real-emission and loop IR divergences at the local level. Together with an automated local renormalization procedure based on the R-operation (~local BPHZ), the resulting expression is locally finite and thus amenable to a fully numerical integration at arbitrary perturbative orders and for processes with final-state singularities only. I will present an overview of the various ingredients entering that construction and the challenges awaiting my new group at the University of Bern.
