Positivity in Massive Spin-3/2 EFTs and the Planck-Suppressed Neighbourhood of Supergravity
Jay Desai, Diptimoy Ghosh, Saurabh Pant
It is well known that a strictly massless spin- particle can interact consistently only within supergravity. Recently, positivity arguments have shown that an effective field…
Nicolai maps and uniqueness in the light-cone gauge
Nipun Bhave, Saurabh Pant
We compute the Nicolai map for the supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, in the light-cone gauge, to the second order in the coupling constant for all critical dimensions (d=3,4,6,10).…
Deriving interaction vertices in higher derivative theories
Sudarshan Ananth, Nipun Bhave, Chetan Pandey +1
We derive cubic interaction vertices for a class of higher-derivative theories involving three arbitrary integer spin fields. This derivation uses the requirement of closure of the…
Soft factors and interaction vertices from light-cone actions
Sudarshan Ananth, Chetan Pandey, Saurabh Pant
Universal factors associated with the emission of a soft boson in gauge theories and gravity, formulated in the light-cone gauge, are presented. The inverse-soft method, for constr…
Supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in D=6 without anti-commuting variables
Sudarshan Ananth, Hannes Malcha, Chetan Pandey +1
Supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory is formulated in six dimensions, without the use of anti-commuting variables. This is achieved using a new Nicolai map, to third order in the coupl…
Higher spins, quadratic forms and amplitudes
Sudarshan Ananth, Chetan Pandey, Saurabh Pant
The light-cone Hamiltonians for spin 1 and spin 2 fields, describing both the pure and the maximally supersymmetric theories, may be expressed as quadratic forms. In this paper, we…
Perturbative linearization of supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory
Sudarshan Ananth, Olaf Lechtenfeld, Hannes Malcha +3
Supersymmetric gauge theories are characterized by the existence of a transformation of the bosonic fields (Nicolai map) such that the Jacobi determinant of the transformation equa…
Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theories: not quite the usual perspective
Sudarshan Ananth, Hermann Nicolai, Chetan Pandey +1
In this paper, we take up an old thread of development concerning the characterization of supersymmetric theories without any use of anticommuting variables that goes back to one o…
