Recursion relations from soft theorems

Hui Luo, Congkao Wen

We establish a set of new on-shell recursion relations for amplitudes satisfying soft theorems. The recursion relations can apply to those amplitudes whose additional physical inpu…

Soft theorems from anomalous symmetries

Yu-tin Huang, Congkao Wen

We discuss constraints imposed by soft limits for effective field theories arising from symmetry breaking. In particular, we consider those associated with anomalous conformal symm…

Instanton corrections to the effective action of N=4 SYM

Massimo Bianchi, Jose Francisco Morales, Congkao Wen

We compute the one-instanton effective action of N=4 super Yang-Mills theory with gauge group Sp(2N). The result can be written in a very compact and manifestly supersymmetric form…

Simplifying one-loop amplitudes in superstring theory

Massimo Bianchi, Dario Consoli

We show that 4-point vector boson one-loop amplitudes, computed in ref.[1] in the RNS formalism, around vacuum configurations with open unoriented strings, preserving at least N=1…

Wilson Loops and Chiral Correlators on Squashed Sphere

F. Fucito, J. F. Morales, R. Poghossian

We study chiral deformations of and supersymmetric gauge theories obtained by turning on interactions with the su…

Exact coefficients for higher dimensional operators with sixteen supersymmetries

Wei-Ming Chen, Yu-tin Huang, Congkao Wen

We consider constraints on higher dimensional operators for supersymmetric effective field theories. In four dimensions with maximal supersymmetry and SU(4) R-symmetry, we demonstr…

On the soft limit of open string disk amplitudes with massive states

Massimo Bianchi, Andrea L. Guerrieri

We discuss the soft behaviour of open string amplitudes with gluons and massive states in any dimension. Notwithstanding non-minimal couplings of massive higher spin states to gluo…

Double Soft Theorems in Gauge and String Theories

Anastasia Volovich, Congkao Wen, Michael Zlotnikov

We investigate the tree-level S-matrix in gauge theories and open superstring theory with several soft particles. We show that scattering amplitudes with two or three soft gluons o…
