We use the flat space limit of the AdS/CFT correspondence to derive a simple relation between the 2 to 2 scattering amplitude of massless string states in type IIB superstring theory on ten-dimensional Minkowski space and a scaling limit of the N=4 super Yang-Mills four point functions. We conjecture that this relation holds non-perturbatively and at arbitrarily high energy.

    hep-th 2025-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The first curvature correction to the AdS3 x S3 Virasoro-Shapiro amplitude for four arbitrary KK modes is obtained as a single-valued polylogarithm worldsheet integral, yielding new anomalous dimensions and OPE data f...

    hep-th 2025-07 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    A position-space flat-space limit formula for holographic defect two-point functions is derived, proven equivalent to the Mellin-space conjecture, and checked against Wilson loops, surface defects, and giant gravitons.

  3. Imprint of the black hole interior on thermal four-point correlators

    Analytically continuing and smearing thermal four-point correlators turns them into flat-space scattering amplitudes at a bulk point inside the black hole.

    hep-th 2025-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A bulk extremization prescription produces composite timelike-spacelike geodesics whose complex length exactly matches CFT two-point functions at timelike separation, including behind the BTZ horizon.

    The Coulombic Liénard–Wiechert field in AdS and flat space is obtained by recentering the static Coulomb seed on the source geodesic, and antipodal matching emerges as the flat-space limit of an exact bulk antipodal c...

    A lightbulb-and-mirror protocol defines diffeomorphism-invariant elapsed proper time, and its leading quantum gravity correction makes the time a noncommuting quantum operator.
