Gravitational Effective Theories with Maximal Supersymmetry and a Peculiar Parity
Justin Berman, Simon Caron-Huot, Aditi V. Chandra +4
We study the space of four-dimensional ultraviolet completions for supergravity that are described at low energies by weakly-coupled effective field theories (EFTs)…
String Theory from Maximal Supersymmetry
Henriette Elvang, Aidan Herderschee, Roger Morales
We explore the space of non-gravitational, maximally supersymmetric, planar 4d effective field theories (EFTs) that have super Yang-Mills (SYM) at leading order. In…
Splitting Regions and Shrinking Islands from Higher Point Constraints
Justin Berman, Henriette Elvang, Carolina Figueiredo
We study constraints from higher-point amplitudes on scattering in the context of effective field theory (EFT) using the perturbative numerical S-matrix bootstrap. Specif…
Bootstrapping Extremal Scalar Amplitudes With and Without Supersymmetry
Justin Berman, Henriette Elvang, Nicholas Geiser +1
We re-examine positivity bounds on the scattering of identical massless real scalars with a novel perspective on how these bounds can be used to constrain the spectrum of U…
Corners and Islands in the S-matrix Bootstrap of the Open Superstring
Justin Berman, Henriette Elvang
We bootstrap the Veneziano superstring amplitude in 10 dimensions from the bottom-up. Starting with the most general maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills EFT, we input information a…
Flattening of the EFT-Hedron: Supersymmetric Positivity Bounds and the Search for String Theory
Justin Berman, Henriette Elvang, Aidan Herderschee
We examine universal positivity constraints on scattering in 4d planar supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with higher-derivative corrections. We present numerical evi…
