I demonstrate that the amplitude of the high-energy scattering can be factorized in a product of two independent functional integrals over "fast" and "slow" fields which interact by means of Wilson-line operators -- gauge factors ordered…
We present an efficient algorithm to decompose the ultraviolet (UV) divergences of Feynman integrals to local divergences and various types of sub-divergences. With some reasonable assumptions the local divergences of Feynman integrals can…

For any hard QCD amplitude with massless partons, infrared (IR) singularities arise from pinches in the complex planes of loop momenta, called pinch surfaces. To organize and study their leading behaviors in the neighborhoods of these…
Matter-wave interferometry of ultra-cold atoms with attractive interactions is studied at the full many-body level. First, we study how a coherent light-pulse applied to an initially-condensed solitonic system splits it into two…

Null Wilson loops in $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills are dual to planar scattering amplitudes. This duality implies hidden symmetries for both objects. We consider closely related infrared finite observables, defined as the Wilson loop…
We study Euclidean Wilson loops at strong coupling using the AdS/CFT correspondence, where the problem is mapped to finding the area of minimal surfaces in Hyperbolic space. We use a formalism introduced recently by Kruczenski to…
We analyze the perturbative cusp and closed polygons of Wilson lines for massless gauge theories in coordinate space, and express them as exponentials of two-dimensional integrals. These integrals have geometric interpretations, which link…
The factorization theorem for the dijet cross section is presented in hadron-hadron collisions with a cone-type jet algorithm. We also apply the beam veto to the beam jets consisting of the initial radiation. The soft-collinear effective…
We conjecture that the leading two-derivative tree-level amplitudes for gluons and gravitons can be derived from gauge invariance together with mild assumptions on their singularity structure. Assuming locality (that the singularities are…
The leading singularities of one-loop scattering amplitudes in planar $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory are known to factorise into products of tree-level amplitudes, and this can be seen from a number of different perspectives e.g.…
