In this note we address the worldsheet description of 4-dimensional N=8 supergravity using ambitwistors. After gauging an appropriate current algebra, we argue that the only physical vertex operators correspond to the N=8 supermultiplet. It has previously been shown that worldsheet correlators give rise to supergravity tree level scattering amplitudes. We extend this work by proposing a definition for genus-one amplitudes that passes several consistency checks such as exhibiting modular invariance and reproducing the expected infrared behavior of 1-loop supergravity amplitudes.

  1. On polarized scattering equations for superamplitudes of 11D supergravity and ambitwistor superstring

    hep-th 2019-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The polarized scattering equation for 11D supergravity is derived from the supertwistor form of the ambitwistor superstring with SO(16) covariance, and a fermionic superpartner equation on superamplitudes is found.
