We further develop celestial Mellin amplitudes arXiv:2412.11992 to capture the exchange of particles with spin. For massless external scalar fields, we derive closed-form celestial Mellin amplitudes for a spin-1 and spin-2…

The Abelian Higgs model forms an essential part of the electroweak standard model: it is the sector containing only Z and Higgs bosons. We present a diagram-based proof of the tree-level unitarity of this model inside the unitary gauge,…

We compute the complete one-loop corrections to the simplest class of QCD gluon amplitudes, those with two color-adjacent opposite-helicity external particles. We present results for an arbitrary number of external legs. The computation…

This thesis describes some of the recent (and some less recent) developments in calculational techniques for scattering amplitudes in quantum field theory. The focus is on on-shell recursion relations in complex momenta and on the use of…

In this paper analytical results are presented for higher order corrections to coefficient functions of the operator product expansion (OPE) for the correlator of two pseudoscalar gluonium operators \tilde{O}_1=G^{\mu \nu}\tilde{G}_{\mu…

We use on-shell methods to calculate tree-level effective field theory (EFT) amplitudes, with no reference to the EFT operators. Lorentz symmetry, unitarity and Bose statistics determine the allowed kinematical structures. As a by-product,…

We consider a Higgs boson coupled to gluons via the five-dimensional effective operator H Tr G_{munu}G^{munu} produced by considering the heavy top quark limit of the one-loop coupling of Higgs and gluons in the standard model. We treat H…

We compute scattering amplitudes involving one massive scalar and two, three, or four gravitons. We show that when the conformal dimension of the massive scalar is set to zero, the resulting celestial correlators depend {\it only} on the…

Using the ambitwistor string, we complete the list of celestial OPE coefficients for supersymmetric theories. This uses the ambitwistor string worldsheet CFT to dynamically generate the OPE coefficients for maximally supersymmetric gauge…

We extend the celestial Roiban-Spradlin-Volovich-Witten (RSVW) formalism developed in our previous work to minitwistor superspace. Using the Drummond-Henn formula for all tree-level amplitudes in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory,…

Recently it has been shown that in gauge theories amplitudes to any perturbation order can be obtained by glueing together simple three-point on-shell amplitudes. These three-point amplitudes in turn are fixed by locality and Lorentz…

We study the relationship between the momentum twistor MHV vertex expansion of planar amplitudes in N=4 super-Yang-Mills and the all-loop generalization of the BCFW recursion relations. We demonstrate explicitly in several examples that the…

We study the transverse spin structure of the squeezed limit of the three-point energy correlator, $\langle \mathcal{E}(\vec n_1) \mathcal{E}(\vec n_2) \mathcal{E}(\vec n_3) \rangle$. To describe its all orders perturbative behavior, we…

We study celestial amplitudes in (super) Yang-Mills theory using a parameterisation of the spinor helicity variables where their overall phase is not fixed by the little group action. In this approach the spin constraint $h-\bar{h}=J$ for…

We start by constructing a conformally covariant improvement of the celestial light transform which keeps track of the mixing between incoming and outgoing states under finite Lorentz transformations in $\mathbb{R}^{2,2}$. We then compute…

In the maximally-helicity-violating (MHV) configuration, tree-level single-trace Einstein-Yang-Mills (EYM) amplitude with one and two gravitons have been shown to satisfy a formula where each graviton splits into a pair of collinear gluons.…

We transform superstring scattering amplitudes into the correlation functions of primary conformal fields on two-dimensional celestial sphere. The points on celestial sphere are associated to the asymptotic directions of (light-like)…

The operator product expansion in four-dimensional superconformal field theory is discussed. The OPE takes a particularly simple form for chiral operators, in $N=1$ and $N=2$, and for analytic operators, in $N=2$ and $N=4$. It is argued…

We study the operator product expansion (OPE) for scalar conformal defects of any codimension in CFT. The OPE for defects is decomposed into "defect OPE blocks", the irreducible representations of the conformal group, each of which packages…

Operator product expansion technique is analyzed in abelian and nonabelian nonsupersymmetric field theoretical models with confinement. Special attention is paid to the regimes where nonzero virtuality of vacuum fields is felt by external…
