We first analyse the integrable scattering theory describing the massless excitations of $AdS_2 \times S^2 \times T^6$ superstrings in the relativistic limit. The matrix part of the S-matrix is obtained in the BMN limit from the conjectured…
We extend the $S$-matrix of gravity by the addition of the minimal three-point amplitude or equivalently adding $R^3$ terms to the Lagrangian. We demonstrate how Unitarity can be used to simply examine the renormalisability of this theory…

From the world-sheet point of view we compute three, four and five point BPS and non-BPS scattering amplitudes of type IIA and IIB superstring theory. All these the mixed S-matrix elements including a closed string Ramond-Ramond (RR) in the…
In this paper we examine iterative methods for solving the forward ($A{\bf x}={\bf b}$) and adjoint ($A^{T}{\bf y}={\bf g}$) systems of linear equations used to approximate the scattering amplitude, defined by ${\bf g}^{T}{\bf x}={\bf…
This work extends previous results on the inverse scattering problem within the framework of Marchenko theory (fixed-$l$ inversion). In particular, I approximate an $n$-channel $S$-matrix as a function of the first-channel momentum $q$ by a…
Exact analytical expressions for the cross-section correlation functions of chaotic scattering sys- tems have hitherto been derived only under special conditions. The objective of the present article is to provide expressions that are…
Expanding Nambu-Goto action near infinitely long string vacuum one can compute scattering amplitudes of 2d massless fields representing transverse string coordinates. As was shown in arXiv:1203.1054, the resulting S-matrix is integrable, in…
In the three-body system with one resonantly interacting pair, we study the behavior of the $S$-matrix pole near the threshold in the fourth quadrant of the unphysical complex energy plane. Our study is essentially based on the unitarity…
This is the 6th paper in the series developing the formalism to manage the effective scattering theory of strong interactions. Relying on the theoretical scheme suggested in our previous publications we concentrate here on the practical…
We argue that for finite energy windows, the final states in gravitational scattering in dimension $d > 4$ are normalizable coherent states in Fock space. However, as the center of the energy window goes to infinity, black hole physics…
We argue that one cannot correctly calculate the elastic scattering S-matrix for high-energy dipole-dipole scattering, in the region where S is small, without taking fluctuations into account. The relevant fluctuations are rare and…
