Earth-Moon Lagrangian points as a testbed for general relativity and effective field theories of gravity [PDF]
We first analyse the restricted four-body problem consisting of the Earth, the Moon and the Sun as the primaries and a spacecraft as the planetoid. This scheme allows us to take into account the solar perturbation in the description of the motion of a ...

Anomaly and double copy in quantum self-dual Yang-Mills and gravity [PDF]
Recent works have explored how scattering amplitudes in quantum self-dual Yang-Mills theory and self-dual gravity can be interpreted as resulting from an anomaly, as first proposed by W. Bardeen.

Spin effects in the effective field theory approach to Post-Minkowskian conservative dynamics
Building upon the worldline effective field theory (EFT) formalism for spinning bodies developed for the Post-Newtonian regime, we generalize the EFT approach to Post-Minkowskian (PM) dynamics to include rotational degrees of freedom in a manifestly ...

Towards understanding the ultraviolet behavior of quantum loops in infinite-derivative theories of gravity [PDF]
In this paper we will consider quantum aspects of a non-local, infinite-derivative scalar field theory—a toy model depiction of a covariant infinite-derivative, non-local extension of Einstein’s general relativity which has previously been shown to be ...

Classical double copy of spinning worldline quantum field theory [PDF]
We study the classical double copy of massive spinning objects in the worldline quantum field theories (WQFT) formalism. We couple the N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 supersymmetric model to a Yang-Mills background to describe the propagation of a spin-half ...

Primordial perturbations in our universe are believed to have a quantum origin, and can be described by the wavefunction of the universe (or equivalently, cosmological correlators). It follows that these observables must carry the imprint of the founding

Classical limit of large N gauge theories with conformal symmetry [PDF]
In this paper we study classical limit of conformal field theories realized by large N gauge theories using the generalized coherent states. For generic large N gauge theories with conformal symmetry, we show that the classical limit of t hem is ...

Ghost free mimetic massive gravity
The mass of the graviton can be generated using a Brout-Englert-Higgs mechanism with four scalar fields. We show that when one of these fields is costrained as in mimetic gravity, the massive gravity obtained is ghost free and consistent.

We study a host of spacetimes where the Weyl curvature may be expressed algebraically in terms of an Abelian field strength. These include Type D spacetimes in four and higher dimensions which obey a simple quadratic relation between the field strength ...

Causality bounds on scalar-tensor EFTs
We compute the causality/positivity bounds on the Wilson coefficients of scalar-tensor effective field theories. Two-sided bounds are obtained by extracting IR information from UV physics via dispersion relations of scattering amplitudes, making use of ...
