Using a feedback loop it is possible to reduce the fluctuations in one quadrature of an in-loop field without increasing the fluctuations in the other. This effect has been known for a long time, and has recently been called ``squashing''…
We derive a closed form expression for the sum of all the infrared divergent contributions to the free-energy of a gas of gravitons. An important ingredient of our calculation is the use of a gauge fixing procedure such that the graviton…
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…
