In order to deal with IR divergences arising in QED or perturbative quantum gravity scattering processes, one can either calculate inclusive quantities or use dressed asymptotic states. We consider incoming superpositions of momentum…
We show explicitly that, among the scattering amplitudes constructed from eigenstates of the BMS supertranslation charge, the ones that conserve this charge, are equal to those constructed from Faddeev-Kulish states. Thus, Faddeev-Kulish…
We study information-theoretic aspects of the infrared sector of quantum electrodynamics, using the dressed-state approach pioneered by Chung, Kibble, Faddeev-Kulish and others. In this formalism QED has an IR-finite S-matrix describing the…
We consider two applications of the factorization of infrared dynamics in QED and gravity. The first is a redefinition of the Lorentz transformations that makes them commute with supertranslations. The other is the process of particle…
In [1,2] it was shown that the subleading soft photon theorem in tree level amplitudes in massless QED is equivalent to a new class of symmetries of the theory parameterized by a vector field on the celestial sphere. In this paper, we…
The entanglement among scattering particles in an exemplary quantum electrodynamics (QED) process is studied perturbatively. To increase the computational accuracy, we need to consider virtual photon loop diagrams, which lead to infrared…
We consider soft photons effects (IR structure of QED) on the construction of physical qubits. Soft-photons appear when we build charged qubits from the asymptotic states of QED. This construction is necessary in order to include the effect…
We study the $S$-matrix and inclusive cross-section for general dressed states in quantum electrodynamics. We obtain an infrared factorization formula of the $S$-matrix elements for general dressed states. It enables us to study what…
We study the behavior of the tree-level S-matrix of a variety of theories as two particles become soft. By analogy with the recently found subleading soft theorems for gravitons and gluons, we explore subleading terms in double soft…
We discuss the infrared and ultraviolet behavior of the fermion propagator in (2+1)-dimensional QED based on spectral representation.If we choose soft-photon exponentiation to include all orders of soft-photon emission by electron,its…
Recently it has been shown that the vacuum state in QED is infinitely degenerate. Moreover a transition among the degenerate vacua is induced in any nontrivial scattering process and determined from the associated soft factor. Conventional…
We derive a factorization theorem for the structure-dependent QED effects in the weak exclusive process $B^-\to\ell^-\bar\nu_\ell$, i.e., effects probing the internal structure of the $B$ meson. The derivation requires a careful treatment…
Factorization in gauge theories holds at the amplitude or amplitude-squared level for states of given soft or collinear momenta. When performing phase-space integrals over such states, one would generally like to avoid putting in explicit…
In arXiv:2206.04188, we developed a first-quantized worldline formalism for all-order computations of amplitudes in QED. In particular, we demonstrated in this framework an all-order proof of the infrared safety of the Faddeev-Kulish (FK)…

If a set of charged objects collide in space and the fragments disperse, then this process will emit electromagnetic waves. Classical soft photon theorem determines the constant term and the leading power law fall-off of the wave-form at…
It is by now clear that infrared sector of QED has an intriguingly complex structure. Based on earlier pioneering works on this subject, two of us recently proposed a simple modification of QED by constructing a generalization of the $U(1)$…
