A method of exact all-order summation of leading infrared logarithms in two dimensional massless $\Phi^4$-type non-renormalizable effective field theories (EFTs) is developed. The method is applied to the ${\rm O}(N)$-symmetric EFT, which…

Memory effects in scattering processes are described in terms of the asymptotic retarded fields. These fields are completely determined by the scattering data and the zero mode part is set by the soft photon theorem. The dressed asymptotic…

In this note, we investigate the implications of classical soft theorems for the formalism developed by Kosower, Maybee and O'Connell (KMOC) to derive classical observables in gauge theory and gravity from scattering amplitudes. In…

Soft theorems in gauge theory and gravity encode the universal properties of scattering amplitudes as the zero frequency limit of one or more external states is approached. When the participating particles are treated in the massless limit,…

We introduce a covariant Multipole Expansion for the scattering of a massive particle emitting photons or gravitons in $D$ dimensions. We find that these amplitudes exhibit very powerful features such as universality, soft exponentiation,…

Infrared divergences in Quantum Field Theory govern the low-energy dynamics of many physical theories, and their understanding is a crucial ingredient in predicting the outcomes of collider experiments. We present a novel approach to…

Using universal predictions provided by classical soft theorems, we revisit the energy emission spectrum for gravitational scatterings of compact objects in the low-frequency expansion. We calculate this observable beyond the zero-frequency…

Recent work on the use of dimensional reduction for the regularisation of non--supersymmetric theories is reviewed. It is then shown that there exists a class of theories for which a universal form of the soft supersymmetry breaking terms…

Infinite sets of asymptotic soft-charges were recently shown to be related to new symmetries of the $S$-matrix, spurring a large amount of research on this and related questions. Notwithstanding, the raison-d'\^etre of these soft-charges…
