We calculate on-shell scattering amplitudes involving fermions at the tree level in open superstring field theory. We confirm that four-point and five-point amplitudes in the world-sheet path integral with the standard prescription using…
Scattering amplitudes in quantum field theory are independent of the field parameterization, which has a natural geometric interpretation as a form of `coordinate invariance.' Amplitudes can be expressed in terms of Riemannian curvature…
The QED four-photon amplitude has been well-studied by many authors, and on-shell is treated in many textbooks. However, a calculation with all four photons off-shell is presently still lacking, despite of the fact that this amplitude…
We introduce a family of dualities between certain non-supersymmetric self-dual gauge theories on a large class of $4d$ self-dual asymptotically flat backgrounds, and the large $N$ limit of an independently defined $2d$ chiral defect CFT.…
In \cite{Chen:2016fgi} we proposed a differential operator for the evaluation of the multi-dimensional residues on isolated (zero-dimensional) poles.In this paper we discuss some new insight on evaluating the (generalized) Cachazo-He-Yuan…
Over the past two years, the use of on-shell techniques has deepened our understanding of the S-matrix of gauge theories and led to the calculation of many new scattering amplitudes. In these notes we review a particular on-shell method…
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…
In this paper we study the vertex operator algebra $\mathscr D^{\text{ch}}(\mathbb H,\Gamma)$ constructed from the fixed points of the chiral differential operators on the upper half plane which is holomorphic at all the cusps, under the…
In the on-shell formalism (mostly used in perturbative quantum field theory) the entries of the time ordered product T are on-shell fields (i.e. the basic fields satisfy the free field equations). With that, (multi)linearity of T is…
The purpose of this paper is to study the holomorphic multicollinear limit of (celestial) amplitudes and use it to further investigate the double residue condition for (hard celestial) amplitudes and the celestial operator product…
Using only the Britto-Cachazo-Feng-Witten(BCFW) on-shell recursion relation we prove color-order reversed relation, $U(1)$-decoupling relation, Kleiss-Kuijf(KK) relation and Bern-Carrasco-Johansson(BCJ) relation for color-ordered gauge…
We apply on-shell and integrability methods that have been developed in the context of scattering amplitudes in N=4 SYM theory to tree-level form factors of this theory. Focussing on the colour-ordered super form factors of the chiral part…
We extend the covariant color-kinematics duality introduced by Cheung and Mangan to effective field theories. We focus in particular on relations between the effective field theories of gluons only and of gluons coupled to bi-adjoint…
In this paper, we present a systematic derivation aimed at obtaining general expressions for on-shell recursion relations for tree-level open string amplitudes. Our approach involves applying the BCFW shift to an open string amplitude…
It is argued that the integrable model for the planar spectrum of the AdS/CFT correspondence can accommodate for the full spectrum of excitations $D^{\alpha \dot \alpha}, \phi^{[IJ]}, \psi^I, \bar \psi_I, F^{\alpha \beta}, \tilde F^{\dot…
This article explores an operational model for transition amplitudes between measurements proposed by Goyal et al. within the quantum reconstruction program. To classify suitable amplitude algebras, we distinguish mathematical axioms,…
We further elaborate on the general construction proposed in arXiv:1812.03369, which connects, via tree-level double copy, massless string amplitudes with color-ordered QFT amplitudes that are given by Cachazo-He-Yuan formulas. The current…
We complete the generalisation of the BCFW recursion relation to the off-shell case, allowing for the computation of tree level scattering amplitudes for full High Energy Factorisation (HEF), i.e. with both incoming partons having a…
We show that tree-level form factors with length-two operators in Yang-Mills-scalar (YMS) theory exhibit structures very similar to scattering amplitudes of gluons and scalars, which leads to new relations between them. Just like…
We examine the application of boundary states in computing amplitudes in off-shell open string theory. We find a straightforward generalization of boundary state which produces the correct matrix elements with on-shell closed string states.
