As a step toward satisfactory understanding of the quantum dynamics of Dirichlet \break (D-) particles, the amplitude for the basic process describing the scattering of two quantized D-particles is computed in bosonic string theory. The…

You might've heard about various mathematical properties of scattering amplitudes such as analyticity, sheets, branch cuts, discontinuities, etc. What does it all mean? In these lectures, we'll take a guided tour through simple scattering…

We study two-to-two scattering amplitudes of a scalar particle of mass $m$. For simplicity, we assume the presence of $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry and that the particle is $\mathbb{Z}_2$ odd. We consider two classes of amplitudes: the fully…

The process of alternately row scaling and column scaling a positive $n \times n$ matrix $A$ converges to a doubly stochastic positive $n \times n$ matrix $S(A)$, called the \emph{Sinkhorn limit} of $A$. Exact formulae for the Sinkhorn…

We review recent progress on computing scattering amplitudes of planar N=4 super Yang-Mills at strong coupling by using the AdS/CFT duality. We do explicit computations by using both, dimensional regularization and a cut-off in the radial…

We propose a dual formulation for the S Matrix of N = 4 SYM. The dual provides a basis for the "leading singularities" of scattering amplitudes to all orders in perturbation theory, which are sharply defined, IR safe data that uniquely…

It is shown that the scattering S-matrix is unitary even if the scattering potential U(x) tends to different limits at plus and minus infinity. This result is in contrast to the statements of some authors which argue that the different…
