We consider the spatially inhomogeneous Boltzmann equation without angular cutoff for soft potentials. For any given initial datum such that the mass, energy and entropy densities are bounded and the mass is away from vacuum, we establish…
We summarize recent results regarding single and double soft theorems of two different particles named dilatons, the Nambu-Goldstone boson of the spontaneously broken conformal field theories and the massless scalar particle of the closed…
We report progress in computing and analyzing all tree amplitudes in ABJM theory. Inspired by the isomorphism between the orthogonal Grassmannian and the pure spinor geometries, we adopt a new gauge, called u-gauge, for evaluating the…
We prove two "Singularity removal rigidity theorems" for minimal hypersurfaces with isolated singularities in manifolds of nonnegative scalar curvature (Theorems \ref{thm: rigidity for minimal surface} and \ref{thm: georch free of…
Soft theorems for the scattering of low energy photons and gravitons and cosmological consistency conditions on the squeezed-limit correlation functions are both understood to be consequences of invariance under large gauge transformations.…
It is known that for N=8 supergravity, the double-soft-scalar limit of a n-point amplitude is given by a sum of local SU(8) rotations acting on a (n-2)-point amplitude. For N<8 supergravity theories, complication arises due to the presence…
In this work, we extend the study of soft limits to (Anti) de Sitter spaces, investigating the analytic structure of holographic gluon correlators as part of a broader effort to reveal new symmetries and fundamental structures in gauge…
We study effective actions for simultaneous breaking of space-time and internal symmetries. Novel features arise due to the mixing of Goldstone modes under the broken symmetries which, in contrast to the usual Adler's zero, leads to…
We investigate the behavior of superstring disk scattering amplitudes in the presence of a soft external momentum at finite string tension. We prove that there are no $\alpha'$-corrections to the field theory form of the subleading soft…
The occurrence of zeros of 2 to n amplitudes at threshold in scalar theories is studied. We find a differential equation for the scalar potential, which incorporates all known cases where the 2 to n amplitudes at threshold vanish for all…
We construct "soft-collinear gravity", the effective field theory which describes the interaction of collinear and soft gravitons with matter (and themselves), to all orders in the soft-collinear power expansion. Despite the absence of…
It is demonstrated that it is possible to find a field theory containing massless scalar particles which has infrared structure closely resembling that of quantum electrodynamics and perturbative quantum gravity but exhibiting no gauge…
We derive cubic interaction vertices for a class of higher-derivative theories involving three arbitrary integer spin fields. This derivation uses the requirement of closure of the Poincar\`e algebra in four-dimensional flat spacetime. We…
We find new relations for the non-universal part of the Yang-Mills amplitudes by combining the KLT-relation and the soft behavior of gauge and gravity amplitudes. We also extend the relations to include contributions from effective…
It is a common lore that the amplitude for a scattering process involving one soft Nambu--Goldstone boson should scale like an integer power of the soft momentum. We revisit this expectation by considering the $2 \to 2$ scattering of…
We give soft, quantitatively optimal extensions of the classical Sphere Theorem, Wilking's connectivity principle and Frankel's Theorem to the context of ${k}$-th Ricci curvature. The hypotheses are soft in the sense that they are satisfied…
We show that the Banks-Fischler-Shenker-Susskind matrix model for M-theory obeys the leading and subleading soft theorems expected from eleven-dimensional supergravity. The subleading soft theorem implies the amplitude is Lorentz symmetric.…
A nonrelativistic quantum mechanical particle moving freely on a curved surface feels the effect of the nontrivial geometry of the surface through the kinetic part of the Hamiltonian, which is proportional to the Laplace-Beltrami operator,…
We analyze the general structure of soft scalar masses emerging in superstring models involving anomalous U(1) symmetries, with the aim of characterizing more systematically the circumstances under which they can happen to be flavor…
We show that the distributional nature of soft theorems requires the soft limit expansion to take priority over the regulator expansion of Feynman loop integrals. We start the study of soft graviton theorems at loop level from this…
