Supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models are obtained from linear sigma models by imposing supersymmetric constraints. If we introduce auxiliary chiral and vector superfields, these constraints can be expressed by D-terms and F-terms depending…

The high-energy factorization of gauge theory scattering amplitudes in terms of universal impact factors and a Reggeized exchange in the $t$-channel, corresponding to a Regge pole in the angular momentum plane, is know to conflict with the…

The nonnegative matrix factorization is a widely used, flexible matrix decomposition, finding applications in biology, image and signal processing and information retrieval, among other areas. Here we present a related matrix factorization.…

We use on-shell methods to compute all three-point interactions of massive spin-3/2 particles involving a graviton and particles of spin $\leq 1$. By employing the massive spinor-helicity formalism we identify the interactions which have a…

We study d=2, N=(2,2) non-linear sigma-models in (2,2) superspace. By analyzing the most general constraints on a superfield, we show that through an appropriate choice of coordinates, there are no other superfields than chiral, twisted…

A new kind of delta expansion is applied on the lattice to the d=2 non-linear sigma model at N=infinity and N=1 which corresponds to the Ising model. We introduce the parameter delta for the dilation of the scaling region of the model with…

There is currently a high demand for theoretical predictions for processes at next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) and beyond, mainly due to the large amount of data which has already been collected at LHC. This requires practical methods…

In this note we study on-shell tree-level gravity amplitudes in the infinite momentum limit. In the case of the two-line BCFW shift, we have a famous improved behavior at infinity that allows for the amplitude to be reconstructed from the…

The QCD factorization approach provides the theoretical basis for a systematic analysis of nonleptonic decay amplitudes of B mesons in the heavy-quark limit. After recalling the basic ideas underlying this formalism, several tests of QCD…

Arkani-Hamed et. al. have recently shown that all tree-level scattering amplitudes in maximal supergravity exhibit exceptionally soft behavior when two supermomenta are taken to infinity in a particular complex direction, and that this…

The quantum field theory describing the massive O(2) nonlinear sigma-model is investigated through two non-perturbative constructions: The form factor bootstrap based on integrability and the lattice formulation as the XY model. The…

We consider the duality between the four-dimensional S-matrix of planar maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and the expectation value of polygonal shaped Wilson loops in the same theory. We extend the duality to amplitudes with…

The Shimura correspondence connects modular forms of integral weights and half-integral weights. One of the directions is realized by the Shintani lift, where the inputs are holomorphic differentials and the outputs are holomorphic modular…

Multi-soliton pulses, as special solutions of the Nonlinear Schroedinger Equation (NLSE), are potential candidates for optical fiber transmission where the information is modulated and recovered in the so-called nonlinear Fourier domain.…

We discuss the target space pseudoduality in supersymmetric sigma models on symmetric spaces using two different methods, orthonormal coframe and component expansion. These two methods yield similar results to the classical cases with the…

Matrix elements of Wilson-line dressed operators play a central role in the factorization of soft and collinear modes in gauge theories. When expressed using spinor helicity variables, these so-called form factors admit a classification…

Using the method of on-shell recursion relations we compute tree level amplitudes including D-dimensional scalars and fermions. These tree level amplitudes are needed for calculations of one-loop amplitudes in QCD involving external quarks…

We describe the recently developed on-shell bootstrap for computing one-loop amplitudes in non-supersymmetric theories such as QCD. The method combines the unitarity method with loop-level on-shell recursion. The unitarity method is used to…

Gauged linear sigma models with (0,2) supersymmetry allow a larger choice of couplings than models with (2,2) supersymmetry. We use this freedom to find a fully linear construction of torsional heterotic compactifications, including models…

We continue the discussion of the decorated on-shell diagrammatics for planar N < 4 Supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories started in arXiv:1510.03642. In particular, we focus on its relation with the structure of varieties on the Grassmannian.…
