摘要:
弦理论是否由自洽性唯一确定?因果性和幺正性似乎在至少二到二散射层面上允许大量假定的形变。受此问题启发,我们启动了对来自更高点因子化的散射约束的系统性探索,该因子化对给定振幅所定义的留数和谱施加了极其严格的求和规则。这些界限轻松排除了几个提出的弦形变:最简单的具有可调质量的“定制”振幅以及来自“二元几何”的修正弦积分族。虽然弦本身通过了所有测试,但我们的形式体系无需借助世界sheet顶点算子即可直接提取低能弦模式的三点振幅。
英文摘要:
Is string theory uniquely determined by self-consistency? Causality and unitarity seemingly permit a multitude of putative deformations, at least at the level of two-to-two scattering. Motivated by this question, we initiate a systematic exploration of the constraints on scattering from higher-point factorization, which imposes extraordinarily restrictive sum rules on the residues and spectra defined by a given amplitude. These bounds handily exclude several proposed deformations of the string: the simplest "bespoke" amplitudes with tunable masses and a family of modified string integrands from "binary geometry." While the string itself passes all tests, our formalism directly extracts the three-point amplitudes for the low-lying string modes without the aid of worldsheet vertex operators.
