Raphael Bousso, Ben Freivogel, Yasuhiro Sekino +4
We study pocket universes which have zero cosmological constant and non-trivial boundary topology. These arise from bubble collisions in eternal inflation. Using a simplified dust…
Maximum Wavelength of Confined Quarks and Gluons and Properties of Quantum Chromodynamics
Stanley J. Brodsky, Robert Shrock
Because quarks and gluons are confined within hadrons, they have a maximum wavelength of order the confinement scale. Propagators, normally calculated for free quarks and gluons us…
Worldlines as Wilson Lines
Daniel Green
Gravitational theories do not admit gauge invariant local operators. We study the limits under which there exists a quasi-local description for a class of non-local gravitational o…
Monodromy in the CMB: Gravity Waves and String Inflation
Eva Silverstein, Alexander Westphal
We present a simple mechanism for obtaining large-field inflation, and hence a gravitational wave signature, from string theory compactified on twisted tori. For Nil manifolds, we…
Center-stabilized Yang-Mills theory: confinement and large volume independence
Mithat Unsal, Laurence G. Yaffe
We examine a double trace deformation of SU(N) Yang-Mills theory which, for large and large volume, is equivalent to unmodified Yang-Mills theory up to corrections.…
The Two-Loop Six-Gluon MHV Amplitude in Maximally Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory
Z. Bern, L. J. Dixon, D. A. Kosower +4
We give a representation of the parity-even part of the planar two-loop six-gluon MHV amplitude of N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory, in terms of loop-momentum integrals with simple dual…
