We consider soft graviton scattering for a theory where Einstein's gravity is minimally coupled to a scalar field in the presence of a cosmological constant, i.e. in a background de Sitter space. Employing a perturbative expansion in a…

Chern-Simons perturbations introduce corrections to soft theorems for gauge theories at subleading $\mathcal{O}\left(\omega^0\right)$ order in soft momenta. We investigate these soft theorems in flat spacetime with perturbative $1/\ell^2$…

Perturbative quantum field theory (QFT) calculations in de Sitter space are riddled with contributions that diverge over time. These contributions often arise from loop integrals, which are notoriously hard to compute in de Sitter. We…
