Scattering amplitudes from intersection theory
S Mizera - Physical Review Letters, 2018 - APS
We use Picard-Lefschetz theory to prove a new formula for intersection numbers of twisted
cocycles associated with a given arrangement of hyperplanes. In a special case when this …

Combinatorics and topology of Kawai-Lewellen-Tye relations
S Mizera - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 - Springer
A bstract We revisit the relations between open and closed string scattering amplitudes

Worldsheet formalism for decoupling limits in string theory
A bstract We study the bosonic sector of a decoupling limit of type IIA superstring theory,
where a background Ramond-Ramond one-form is fined tuned to its critical value, such that …

BMS-invariant free scalar model
P Hao, W Song, X Xie, Y Zhong - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
The BMS (Bondi–van der Burg–Metzner–Sachs) symmetry arises as the asymptotic
symmetry of flat spacetime at null infinity. In particular, the BMS algebra for three …
