We consider scattering processes in the matrix model with three incoming and three outgoing gravitons. We find a discrepancy between the amplitude calculated from the matrix model and the supergravity prediction. Possible sources for this…
We compare the amplitudes for the long-distance scattering of three gravitons in eleven dimensional supergravity and matrix theory at finite N. We show that the leading supergravity term arises from loop contributions to the matrix theory…
We study graviton scattering in the presence of higher dimensional operators - particularly, R^4 - arising from loop effects. We find that the results do not correspond to any known terms in the effective action of Matrix Theory, thus…
It is briefly explained why recent claims about the vanishing of the one-loop effective potential in Matrix theory, thus invalidating the possible agreement with supergravity, do not hold.
The technology required for eikonal scattering amplitude calculations in Matrix theory is developed. Using the entire supersymmetric completion of the v^4/r^7 Matrix theory potential we compute the graviton-graviton scattering amplitude and…
I briefly review recent work on the comparison between two and three graviton scattering in supergravity and matrix theory
In matrix theory the effective action for graviton-graviton scattering is a double expansion in the relative velocity and inverse separation. We discuss the systematics of this expansion and subject matrix theory to a new test. Low energy…
The leading eikonal S-matrix for three graviton scattering in d=11 supergravity and Matrix Theory are shown to precisely agree. The result unifies the source-probe plus recoil approach of Okawa and Yoneya and relaxes the restriction imposed…
We consider a subset of the terms in the effective potential describing three-graviton interactions in Matrix theory and in classical eleven-dimensional supergravity. In agreement with the results of Dine and Rajaraman, we find that these…
In this paper we study the scattering of gravitons off a five orientifold in eleven dimensions. We compare the supergravity result with a two loop M(atrix) model calculation and find exact agreement. The supergravity calculation involves…
We evaluate one-loop finite-time amplitudes for graviton scattering in Matrix theory and compare to the corresponding amplitudes in supergravity. We find agreement for arbitrary time intervals at leading order in distance, providing a…
In a plane-wave matrix model we discuss a two-body scattering of gravitons in the SO(3) symmetric space. In this case the graviton solutions are point-like in contrast to the scattering in the SO(6) symmetric space where spherical membranes…
We study the scattering of three gravitons in M-atrix theory at finite N. With a specific choice of the background we obtain the complete result up to two loops. The contributions from three-body forces agree with the ones presented in…
We apply the matrix-tree theorem to establish a link between various diagrammatic and determinant expressions, which naturally appear in scattering amplitudes of gravity theories. Using this link we are able to give a general…
We obtain the matter-graviton scattering amplitude in the gravitational theory of quadratic curvature, which has $R_{\mu\nu}^2$ term in the action. Unitarity bound is not satisfied because of the existence of negative norm states, while an…
The tree-level S-matrix of type II supergravity can be computed in scattering equation form by correlators in a worldsheet theory analogous to a chiral, infinite tension limit of the pure spinor formalism. By defining a non-minimal version…
We consider the scattering of zero branes off an elementary string in Matrix theory or equivalently gravitons off a longitudinally wrapped membrane. The leading supergravity result is recovered by a one-loop calculation in zero brane…
The maximally helicity violating (MHV) tree level scattering amplitudes involving three, four or five gravitons are worked out in Unimodular Gravity. They are found to coincide with the corresponding amplitudes in General Relativity. This a…
We show by explicit calculation that the matrix model effective action does not contain the term $v_{12}^2 v_{23}^2 v_{13}^2/{R^7 r^7}$, in the limit $R \gg r$, contradicting a result reported recently.
We briefly review the computation of graviton and antisymmetric tensor scattering amplitudes in Matrix Theory from a diagramatic S-Matrix point of view.
