abstract

This is a revised version of our previous paper by the same name and preprint number. It contains various changes, two figures and new results in sect.5. We propose a new approach to four-dimensional Planckian-energy scattering in which the phase of the ${\cal S}$-matrix is written---to leading order in $\hbar$ and to all orders in $R/b =Gs/J$---in terms of the surface term of the gravity action and of a boundary term for the colliding quanta. The proposal is checked at the leading order in $R/b$ and also against some known examples of scattering in strong gravitational fields.

  1. Gravitational lensing in a plasma from worldlines

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The worldline formalism yields a closed-form NLO plasma-induced deflection angle for power-law electron density, matching previous results where they exist.

  2. On symmetries of gravitational on-shell boundary action at null infinity

    hep-th 2025-01 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Fixing null-infinity boundary action ambiguities via 5-point amplitude constraints yields subleading soft theorems and proposes generalized Geroch-tensor Goldstone modes for sub^n-leading soft graviton insertions.
