Compactification in the Lightlike Limit
arXiv:hep-th/9711037 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.59.125002
Abstract
We study field theories in the limit that a compactified dimension becomes lightlike. In almost all cases the amplitudes at each order of perturbation theory diverge in the limit, due to strong interactions among the longitudinal zero modes. The lightlike limit generally exists nonperturbatively, but is more complicated than might have been assumed. Some implications for the matrix theory conjecture are discussed.
