Tree amplitudes of the production of two kinds of scalar particles at threshold from one virtual particle are calculated in a model of two scalar fields with $O(2)$ symmetric quartic interaction and unequal masses. These amplitudes exhibit…
Threshold amplitudes are considered for multi-particle production in $\phi^k$ and $O(N) ~\phi^4$ theories. It is found that the disappearance of tree-level threshold amplitudes of $2$ on-shell particles producing a large number of particles…

A method for calculating loop amplitudes at the multiboson threshold is presented, based on Feynman-diagram techniques. We explicitly calculate the one-loop amplitudes in both $\phi^4$-symmetric and broken symmetry cases, using dimensional…
Threshold amplitudes are considered for $n$-particle production in arbitrary scalar theory. It is found that, like in $\phi ^4$, leading-$n$ corrections to the tree level amplitudes, being summed over all loops, exponentiate. This result…
We consider the problem of multiparticle production at threshold in a $\phi^4$-theory with an $O(N_1$$+$$N_2)$ symmetry softly broken down to $O(N_1)\times O(N_2)$ by nonequal masses. We derive the set of recurrence relations between the…

Calculations of $1\to N$ amplitudes in scalar field theories at very high multiplicities exhibit an extremely rapid growth with the number $N$ of final state particles. This either indicates an end of perturbative behaviour, or possibly…
Calculations of high multiplicity Higgs amplitudes exhibit a rapid growth that may signal an end of perturbative behavior or even the need for new physics phenomena. As a step towards this problem we consider the quantum mechanical…

The threshold behavior of a theory with two coupled scalar fields $\chi$ and $\phi$ is investigated. We compute the amplitude for two on-mass-shell $\chi$-particles to produce an arbitrary number of $\phi$-particles at rest in the tree…
I review some recent work on the problem of multiparticle production in a phi^4-theory with an O(N) symmetry. Threshold amplitudes with fixed number of produced particles are exactly calculated at large-N to all loops and vanish on mass…
It has been shown recently that the amplitude of the creation of $n$ real scalar particles by one virtual boson near $n$--particle threshold exhibits exponential behavior at $n\sim1/\lambda$. We extend this result to the processes of…
We use the semiclassical formalism based on singular solutions in complex time to compute scattering rates for multiparticle production at high energies. In a weakly coupled $\lambda \phi^4$ scalar field theory in four dimensions, we…
We identify a large class of one-loop amplitudes for massless particles that can be constructed via unitarity from tree amplitudes, without any ambiguities. One-loop amplitudes for massless supersymmetric gauge theories fall into this…
We show that nullification of all tree-order threshold amplitudes involving Higgs particles in the Standard Model occurs, provided that certain equations relating the masses of all existing elementary particles to the mass of the Higgs…

We study scalar one-loop amplitudes in massive $\phi^3$-theory within causal loop-tree duality. We derive a recurrence relation for the integrand of the amplitude. The integrand is by construction free of spurious singularities on…
In planar N=4 SYM we study a particular class of helicity preserving amplitudes. These are scalar amplitudes whose flavor configuration is chosen in such a way that only a limited number of diagrams is allowed, which exhibit an iterative…
