We prove that $\W_3$ is the gauge symmetry of the scale-invariant rigid particle, whose action is given by the integrated extrinsic curvature of its world line. This is achieved by showing that its equations of motion can be written in…
The construction of amplitudes on curved space-times is a major challenge, particularly when the background has non-constant curvature. We give formulae for all tree-level graviton scattering amplitudes in curved self-dual radiative…
