We consider the tree amplitudes of production of $n_2$ scalar particles by $n_1$ particles of another kind, where both initial and final particles are at rest and on mass shell, in a model of two scalar fields with $O(2)$ symmetric…
Recently, there has been significant progress in computing scattering amplitudes in the high-energy limit using rapidity evolution equations. We describe the state-of-the-art and demonstrate the interplay between exponentiation of…
It is well known that, as $n$ tends to infinity, the probability of satisfiability for a random 2-SAT formula on $n$ variables, where each clause occurs independently with probability $\alpha/2n$, exhibits a sharp threshold at $\alpha=1$.…
Two-particle scattering in Ising field theory in a weak magnetic field h is studied in the regime T>T_c, using perturbation theory in h^2. We calculate explicitly the cross-section of the process 2->3 to the order h^2. To this order, the…
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…
The amount of information propagated by an intermediate heavy particle exhibits characteristic features in inelastic scatterings with $n\geq 3$ final particles. As the total energy increases, the entanglement entropy, between its decay…
The processes with three or more charged particles in the final state exhibit particular threshold behavior, as inferred by the famous Wannier law for (2e + ion) system. We formulate a general solution which determines the threshold…
Besides the unitarity and symmetry requirements for a multi-resonance scattering amplitude, several other natural conditions can easily exclude unrealistic proposals. In particular, the behaviour of singularities under the variation of…
The consistent construction of scattering amplitudes for processes with off-shell initial partons and involving electro-weak interactions is addressed.
We introduce a formalism for describing four-dimensional scattering amplitudes for particles of any mass and spin. This naturally extends the familiar spinor-helicity formalism for massless particles to one where these variables carry an…
We report on the advances in the calculation of the two-loop scattering amplitudes for five-particle processes with one off-shell leg. Focusing on the production of a Higgs boson in association with a bottom quark pair, we outline how the…
Formulas are derived for solutions of many-body wave scattering problems by small particles in the case of acoustically soft, hard, and impedance particles embedded in an inhomogeneous medium. The limiting case is considered, when the size…
We obtain general bounds on scattering processes involving charged particles in 1+1 spacetime dimensions. After a general analysis we derive mostly numerical bounds on couplings in theories with $O(N)$ and $U(N)$ global symmetries. The…
QCD amplitudes are one of the most important ingredients for the understanding of the early universe. In this work we present how the knowledge of the asymptotic states can be used to calculate the scattering amplitude of the underline QCD…
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…
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…
We prove a lower bound for the modulus of the amplitude for a two-body process at large scattering angle. This is based on the interplay of the analyticity of the amplitude and the positivity properties of its absorptive part. The…
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…
Scattering of two mesons is considered in the framework of two-dimensional QCD in the large-$N_c^{}$ limit with four different quark flavors. The scattering takes place through two coupled channels, corresponding to direct and…
In the CHY-frame for the amplitudes, there are two kinds of singularities we need to deal with. The first one is the pole singularities when the kinematics is not general, such that some of $S_A\to 0$. The second one is the collapse of…
