We find $n(n-3)/2$-dimensional regions of the space of kinematic invariants, where all the solutions to the scattering equations (the core of the CHY formulation of amplitudes) for $n$ massless particles are real. On these regions, the…
The so-called Scattering Equations which govern the kinematics of the scattering of massless particles in arbitrary dimensions have recently been cast into a system of homogeneous polynomials. We study these as affine and projective…
We combine the technology of the theory of polytopes and twisted intersection theory to derive a large class of double copy relations that generalize the classical relations due to Kawai, Lewellen and Tye (KLT) . To do this, we first study…
The aim of the lecture is to briefly describe the mathematical background of scattering theory for two- and three-particle quantum systems. We discuss basic objects of the theory: wave and scattering operators and the corresponding…
We study kinematic algebras associated to the recently proposed scattering equations, which arise in the description of the scattering of massless particles. In particular, we describe the role that these algebras play in the BCJ duality…
The scattering equations are a set of algebraic equations connecting the kinematic space of massless particles and the moduli space of Riemann spheres with marked points. We present an efficient method for solving the scattering equations…
Parke-Taylor functions are certain rational functions on the Grassmannian of lines encoding MHV amplitudes in particle physics. For $n$ particles there are $n!$ Parke-Taylor functions, corresponding to all orderings of the particles. Linear…
A solution of the scattering problem is obtained for the Schr\"odinger equation with the potential of induced dipole interaction, which decreases as the inverse square of the distance. Such a potential arises in the collision of an incident…
A non-unitary version of quantum scattering is studied via an exactly solvable toy model. The model is merely asymptotically local since the smooth path of the coordinate is admitted complex in the non-asymptotic domain. At any real…
We introduce an algorithm for the solution of a system of radial Schr\"odinger equations describing the inelastic scattering of particles with spin in a partial wave with definite total angular momentum. The system of differential equations…
Quantum mechanics is sensitive to the geometry of the underlying space. Here, we present a framework for quantum scattering of a non-relativistic particle confined to a two-dimensional space. When the motion manifold hosts localized…
We present an exactly solvable quantum field theory which allows rearrangement collisions. We solve the model in the relevant sectors and demonstrate the orthonormality and completeness of the solutions, and construct the S-matrix. In the…
We introduce a natural generalization of the scattering equations, which connect the space of Mandelstam invariants to that of points on ${\mathbb{CP}^1}$, to higher-dimensional projective spaces $\mathbb{CP}^{k-1}$. The standard, $k=2$…
Many-body quantum-mechanical scattering problem is solved asymptotically when the size of the scatterers (inhomogeneities) tends to zero and their number tends to infinity. A method is given for calculation of the number of small…
The scattering equations, originally introduced by Fairlie and Roberts in 1972 and more recently shown by Cachazo, He and Yuan to provide a kinematic basis for describing tree amplitudes for massless particles in arbitrary space-time…
Orthogonality of eigenstates of different energies and its implications in potential scattering are unlabeled. Scalar products of scattering states of different energies are found to have finite non-orthogonal terms in potentials of finite…
Instead of using local field equations - like the Dirac equation for spin-1/2 and the Klein-Gordon equation for spin-0 particles - one could try to use non-local field equations in order to describe scattering processes. The latter…
This paper addresses the question, whether the solutions of the scattering equations in four space-time dimensions can be expressed as rational functions of the momentum twistor variables. This is the case for $n\le5$ external particles.…
Quantum field theory provides us with the means to calculate scattering amplitudes. In recent years a dramatic new development has lead to great simplification of such calculations. This is based on the discovery of the``amplituhedron'' in…
We consider 1D quantum scattering problem for a Hamiltonian with symmetries. We show that the proper treatment of symmetries in the spirit of homological algebra leads to new objects, generalizing the well known T- and K-matrices.…
