Simplifying DD-Dimensional Physical-State Sums in Gauge Theory and Gravity

preprint2022arXivOpen access

Abstract

We provide two independent systematic methods of performing DD-dimensional physical-state sums in gauge theory and gravity in such a way so that spurious light-cone singularities are not introduced. A natural application is to generalized unitarity in the context of dimensional regularization or theories in higher spacetime dimensions. Other applications include squaring matrix elements to obtain cross sections, and decompositions in terms of gauge-invariant tensors.
