Nima Arkani-Hamed, a famous physicist, is making progress an efforts to do quantum physics calculations that are usually done with Feynman diagrams, which have a clear heuristic explanation (of assigning probabilities to all possible paths that a particle or particles can take from a starting position to an ending one), with a completely different kind of calculation, not involving infinite series that have to be approximated, that can get the same results in a subset of real world situations with less of a computational burden.
4gravitons sketches out his latest efforts in this quest.
