We derive new amplitudes relations revealing a hidden unity among wide-ranging theories in arbitrary spacetime dimensions. Our results rely on a set of Lorentz invariant differential operators which transmute physical tree-level scattering…
The scattering amplitude in the dual model with Mandelstam analyticity and trajectory $\alpha (s)=\alpha_{0}-\gamma \ln [ (1+\beta \sqrt{s_{0} -s})/(1+ \beta \sqrt{s_{0}})]$ is studied in the limit $s,|t|\to \infty, s/t=const.$ By using the…
We show that high energy scattering is a statistical process essentially similar to reaction-diffusion in a system made of a finite number of particles. The Balitsky-JIMWLK equations correspond to the time evolution law for the particle…

We investigate the analytic structure of scattering amplitudes in theories in which Lorentz invariance is spontaneously broken. We do so by computing and studying the S-matrix for a simple example: a superfluid described by a complex scalar…
Singularities, such as poles and branch points, play a crucial role in investigating the analytic properties of scattering amplitudes that inform new computational techniques. In this note, we point out that scattering amplitudes can also…

We develop a dynamical formulation of one-dimensional scattering theory where the reflection and transmission amplitudes for a general, possibly complex and energy-dependent, scattering potential are given as solutions of a set of dynamical…
Utilizing the most recent experimental data, we reanalyze high energy \pbar p and pp data, using the asymptotic amplitude analysis, under the assumption that we have reached `asymptopia'. This analysis gives strong evidence for a $\log…

Recent measurements of the differential cross sections in the forward region of pp elastic scattering at 7 and 8 TeV show precise form of the $t$ dependence. We propose a detailed analysis of these measurements including the structures of…
Open string amplitudes at tree level have been studied for over fifty years, but there is no known analytic form for general $n$-point amplitudes, and their conventional representation in terms of worldsheet integrals does not make many of…
