We study the resonant divergences that occur in quantum scattering cross-sections in the presence of a strong external magnetic field. We demonstrate that all such divergences may be eliminated by introducing radiative corrections to the…
We initiate the study of Dyson equations of perturbative QFT in AdS and their consequences for large-N CFT. We show that the dressed one-particle AdS propagator features wavefunction renormalization and operator mixing, giving rise to…
We study the linearized scattering of dilaton-graviton waves from a thin brane in three-dimensional spacetime. Holographically, the setup models scattering from an interface in a family of strongly coupled theories related to dimensional…
We study the large AdS radius limit of correlation functions in holographic defect CFTs. For two-point functions of operators inserted away from the defect, we derive a position space formula relating a certain scaling limit of the…
We introduce Mellin amplitudes for correlation functions of $k$ scalar operators and one operator with spin in conformal field theories (CFT) in general dimension. We show that Mellin amplitudes for scalar operators have simple poles with…
We prove a scattering result near certain steady states for a Hartree equation for a random field. This equation describes the evolution of a system of infinitely many particles. It is an analogous formulation of the usual Hartree equation…
We study the evolution of cosmological perturbations in an anti-de-Sitter (AdS) bulk through a cosmological singularity by mapping the dynamics onto the boundary conformal fields theory by means of the AdS/CFT correspondence. We consider a…
We consider a scalar field theory on AdS, and show that the usual AdS/CFT prescription is unable to map to the boundary a part of the information arising from the quantization in the bulk. We propose a solution to this problem by defining…
Possible modes of asymptotic behavior of the amplitudes of hadron scattering in QCD are discussed. It is shown that the condition of triviality of the scattering matrix when the interaction of the fundamental fields is turned off leads to…
Scattering of two mesons is considered in the framework of two-dimensional QCD in the large-$N_c^{}$ limit with four different quark flavors. The scattering takes place through two coupled channels, corresponding to direct and…
We conjecture an exact S-matrix for the scattering of solitons in $d_{n+1}^{(2)}$ affine Toda field theory in terms of the R-matrix of the quantum group $U_q(c_n^{(1)})$. From this we construct the scattering amplitudes for all scalar bound…
We study the scattering properties of $N$ identical one-dimensional localized $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric potentials, connected in series as well as in parallel. We derive a general transfer matrix formalism for parallel coupled quantum…
Any non-trivial scattering with massless fields in four spacetime dimensions will generically produce an out-state with memory. Scattering with any massless fields violates the standard assumption of asymptotic completeness -- that all "in"…
4D Lorentzian conformal field theory (CFT) is mapped into 5D anti-de Sitter spacetime (AdS), from the viewpoint of "geometrizing" conformal current algebra. A large-N expansion of the CFT is shown to lead to (infinitely many) weakly coupled…
We extend the generalize conservation law of light propagating in a one-dimensional $\cal PT$-symmetric system, i.e., $|T-1|=\sqrt{R_LR_R}$ for the transmittance $T$ and the reflectance $R_{L,R}$ from the left and right, to a multimode…
The IR finiteness of $\mathcal{S}$-matrix in flat spacetime is tied to the Faddeev-Kulish dressed state, which suggests dressing the Fock space scattering state with the soft photon modes. We instigate a construction for the Faddeev-Kulish…
Using the AdS/CFT correspondence, we study the high-energy behavior of scattering amplitudes in N=4 SYM gauge theory for dipole-dipole soft elastic scattering, described in the Wilson-loop correlator formalism. The amplitudes are evaluated…
This paper focuses on the scaling of the S-matrix for elastic nucleon-nucleon scattering at large Nc. It is argued that the logarithm of a typical S-matrix element is proportional to Nc in the regime where the large Nc limit is taken with…
We examine the process of Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) in the small-x limit, where Pomeron exchange dominates. Using the AdS/CFT correspondence, we study Pomeron exchange in the dual string theory in AdS space, which allows us to study…
The study of critical quantum many-body systems through conformal field theory (CFT) is one of the pillars of modern quantum physics. Certain CFTs are also understood to be dual to higher-dimensional theories of gravity via the anti-de…
