Nonperturbative double copy: worldline instantons, color thermality, and backreaction
John Joseph M. Carrasco, Yaxi Chen, Nicolas H. Pavao +1
We present a first-principles, non-perturbative worldline instanton analysis of vacuum decay in the non-abelian Yang-Mills root of a Schwarzschild background. We recover the gauge…
UV Massive Resonance from IR Double Copy Consistency
John Joseph M. Carrasco, Nicolas H. Pavao
From the perspective of effective field theory (EFT), Wilson coefficients of the low energy theory are determined by integrating out modes of the full ultraviolet (UV) theory. The…
Revealing the Landscape of Globally Color-Dual Multi-loop Integrands
Alex Edison, James Mangan, Nicolas H. Pavao
We report on progress in understanding how to construct color-dual multi-loop amplitudes. First we identify a cubic theory, semi-abelian Yang-Mills, that unifies many of the color-…
Even-point Multi-loop Unitarity and its Applications: Exponentiation, Anomalies and Evanescence
John Joseph M. Carrasco, Nicolas H. Pavao
We identify novel structure in newly computed multi-loop amplitudes and quantum actions for even-point effective field theories, including both the nonlinear sigma model (NLSM) and…
Double-copy towards supergravity inflation with -attractor models
John Joseph M. Carrasco, Matthew Lewandowski, Nicolas H. Pavao
Key to the simplicity of supergravity -attractor models of inflation are Volkov-Akulov fermions, often in the form of nilpotent superfields. Here we explore the possibility of u…
Virtues of a symmetric-structure double copy
John Joseph M. Carrasco, Nicolas H. Pavao
We demonstrate a physical motivation for extending color-dual or BCJ double-copy construction to include theories with kinematic numerators that obey the same algebraic relations a…
Effective observables for electromagnetic duality from novel amplitude decomposition
Nicolas H. Pavao
We introduce a decomposition of D-dimensional vector amplitudes in terms of building blocks that preserve all partial amplitude relations of the parent gauge-theory. Using this dec…
The Color-Dual Fates of , , and Supergravity
John Joseph M. Carrasco, Matthew Lewandowski, Nicolas H. Pavao
We find that the duality between color and kinematics can be used to inform the high energy behavior of effective field theories. Namely, we demonstrate that the massless gauge the…
