In the present letter we indicate an extension of the pure gravity inverse scattering integration technique to the case when fermions (introduced on the base of supersymmetry) are present. In this way the integrability technique for simple…
We compute the three-loop scattering amplitude of four gravitons in ${\mathcal N}=8$ supergravity. Our results are analytic formulae for a Laurent expansion of the amplitude in the regulator of dimensional regularisation. The coefficients…
We use the Poincar\'e series method to compute gravity partition functions associated to SU(N) level 1 WZW models with arbitrarily large numbers of modular invariants. The result is an average over these invariants, with the weights being…
We propose two ways for determining the Green's matrix for problems admitting Hamiltonians that have infinite symmetric tridiagonal (i.e. Jacobi) matrix form on some basis representation. In addition to the recurrence relation comming from…
Spinor gravity is a functional integral formulation of gravity based only on fundamental spinor fields. The vielbein and metric arise as composite objects. Due to the lack of local Lorentz-symmetry new invariants in the effective…
We investigate the hypothesized existence of an S-matrix for gravity, and some of its expected general properties. We first discuss basic questions regarding existence of such a matrix, including those of infrared divergences and…
Ward identities of SUSY and R-symmetry relate n-point amplitudes in supersymmetric theories. We review recent work in which these Ward identities are solved in N=4 SYM and N=8 supergravity. The solution, valid at both tree and loop level,…
A linear map between two vector spaces has a very important characteristic: a determinant. In modern theory two generalizations of linear maps are intensively used: to linear complexes (the nilpotent chains of linear maps) and to non-linear…
We present all-multiplicity formulae, derived from first principles in the MHV sector and motivated by twistor string theory for general helicities, for the tree-level S-matrix of gluon scattering on self-dual radiative backgrounds. These…
In this dissertation we discuss the properties of matrix elements describing the scattering of massive spin-2 particles in theories of compactified gravity. Our primary result is the calculation of 2-to-2 massive spin-2 Kaluza-Klein (KK)…
We introduce a new family of cosmological attractors with non-minimal coupling of gravity and non-canonical kinetic terms. In the Einstein frame, these models transform into a class of exponential and polynomial attractors with the spectral…
We present a new formulation of the loop-tree duality theorem for higher loop diagrams valid both for massless and massive cases. $l$-loop integrals are expressed as weighted sum of trees obtained from cutting $l$ internal propagators of…
We find a class of non-relativistic supersymmetric solutions of IIB supergravity with non-trivial B-field that have dynamical exponent n=2 and are invariant under the Schrodinger group. For a general Sasaki-Einstein internal manifold with…
Multi-loop calculations of the effective action for the matrix model are important for carrying out tests of the conjectured relationship of the matrix model to the low energy description of M-theory. In particular, comparison with…
We briefly review our works for graviton and spherical graviton potentials in a plane-wave matrix model. To compute them, it is necessary to devise a configuration of the graviton solutions, since the plane-wave matrix model includes mass…
It is proposed that a family of Jackiw-Teitelboim supergravites, recently discussed in connection with matrix models by Stanford and Witten, can be given a complete definition, to all orders in the topological expansion and beyond, in terms…
The scattering equations give striking formulae for massless scattering amplitudes at tree level and, as shown recently, at one loop. The progress at loop level was based on ambitwistor string theory, which naturally yields the scattering…
We present a consistent theory of N=1 supergravity in twelve-dimensions with the signature (10,2). Even though the formulation uses two null vectors violating the manifest Lorentz covariance, all the superspace Bianchi identities are…
We review recent progress in 2D gravity coupled to $d<1$ conformal matter, based on a representation of discrete gravity in terms of random matrices. We discuss the saddle point approximation for these models, including a class of related…
We analyze the one-loop effects of massive fields on 2-to-2 scattering processes involving gravitons. It has been suggested that in the presence of gravity, any local effective field theory description must break down at the "species…
