We give a novel formulation of classical double copy in the mini-superspace of static, spherically symmetric black holes where the map between the solutions of general relativity and Maxwell's theory can be realized in Boyer-Lindsquit…

Powerful general arguments allow only a few families of long-range interactions, exemplified by gauge field theories of electromagnetism and gravity. However, all of these arguments presuppose that massless fields have zero spin scale…

We demonstrate that QCD gluon amplitudes can be used to construct a Lagrangian for gravity. This procedure makes use of perturbative `squaring' relations between gravity and gauge theory that follow from string theory. We explicitly carry…

Two different massive gauge invariant spin-one theories in $3+1$ dimensions, one Stuckelberg formulation and the other `$B^{\wedge}F$' theory, with Kalb-Ramond field are shown to be related by duality. This is demonstrated by gauging the…

We reformulate two dimensional string-inspired gravity with point particles as a gauge theory of the extended Poincar\'e group. A non-minimal gauge coupling is necessary for the equivalence of the two descriptions. The classical…

The Kerr-Schild double copy is a map between exact solutions of general relativity and Maxwell's theory, where the nonlinear nature of general relativity is circumvented by considering solutions in the Kerr-Schild form. In this paper, we…

Similarity in the structure of scattering amplitudes in Yang-Mills theories and General Relativity led to the idea that graviton could be described as the double copy of a vector gauge field. In this letter we discuss a realization of this…
