Soft limits of the wavefunction in exceptional scalar theories
From MaRDI portal
Publication:6101239
Abstract: We study the structure of the flat space wavefunctional in scalar field theories with nonlinearly realized symmetries. These symmetries imply soft theorems that are satisfied by wavefunction coefficients in the limit where one of the external momenta is scaled to zero. After elucidating the structure of these soft theorems in the nonlinear sigma model, Dirac-Born-Infeld, and galileon scalar theories, we combine them with information about the singularity structure of the wavefunction to bootstrap the wavefunction coefficients of these theories. We further systematize this construction through two types of recursion relations: one that utilizes the flat space scattering amplitude plus minimal information about soft limits, and an alternative that does not require amplitude input, but does require subleading soft information.
