abstract

$S$-matrix elements are invariant under field redefinitions of the Lagrangian. They are determined by geometric quantities such as the curvature of the field-space manifold of scalar and gauge fields. We present a formalism where scalar and gauge fields are treated together, with a metric on the combined space of both types of fields. Scalar and gauge scattering amplitudes are given by the Riemann curvature $R_{ijkl}$ of this combined space, with indices $i,j,k,l$ chosen to be scalar or gauge indices depending on the type of external particle. One-loop divergences can also be computed in terms of geometric invariants of the combined space, which greatly simplifies the computation of renormalization group equations. We apply our formalism to the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT), and compute the renormalization group equations for even-parity bosonic operators to mass dimension eight.

  3. Geometry of soft scalars at one loop

    hep-th 2025-04 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    The geometric soft theorem for scalar effective field theories is unchanged at one loop in derivative-coupled theories, and receives a universal leading correction when potential interactions are present.

  6. Running soft theorems in effective field theory

    hep-th 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    At one loop, the finite subleading parts of the soft photon and double-soft pion theorems carry Wilson coefficients whose RG running is dictated by the same EFT beta functions, while log terms remain universal.

    hep-ph 2025-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    From a geometric recursion, the authors compute leading high-energy amplitudes with arbitrary multiplicities, resum them into unitarity bounds and cut-offs, and show that a dilaton HEFT reaches the SM as Δ→2 without p...
