abstract
Astonishing cancellations take place in the calculation of high-energy scattering cross sections in quantum quadratic gravity, a quantum field theory for gravity. Tree-level differential cross sections that are minimally inclusive behave as $1/E^2$, as desired for a well-behaved UV completion. Such cross sections are calculated for the various spin states of the massless and massive graviparticles. These describe the hard scattering processes that occur in a picture involving the gravitational analog of parton showers. The structure of some of the simpler amplitudes is also explored. Unitarity without positivity is the key property of the perturbative theory.

Superselected ghost theory: real spectrum
A ghost QFT with a real spectrum can be made probabilistic by enforcing exact ghost parity as a superselection rule, so physical states have definite norm sign.

Remarks on ghost resonances
For a ghost field above the multiparticle threshold, the dressed propagator carries a complex conjugate pole pair in the first Riemann sheet, and the paper derives spectral representations for both sheets while flaggi...
