Quantum Extended Arithmetic Veneziano Amplitude
نویسنده
چکیده
The Veneziano amplitude for the tree-level scattering of four tachyonic scalar of open string theory has an arithmetic analogue in terms of the p-adic gamma function. We propose a quantum extension of this amplitude using the q-extended p-adic gamma function given by Koblitz. This provides a one parameter deformation of the arithmetic Veneziano amplitude. We also comment on the dificulty in generalising this to higher point amplitudes.

Regge amplitudes from AdS/CFT duality
It is well-known that string theory started from the proposal of scattering amplitudes which may grasp the two major structures of soft interaction phenomenology in a condensed form : resonances and Regge poles. Two types of amplitudes were proposed for four-point amplitudes, see Fig.1. The Veneziano amplitude corresponds to Reggeon exchanges with non-vacuum quantum numbers and the Shapiro-Vira...
متن کاملThe Birth of String Theory
In this contribution we go through the developments that in the years from 1968 to about 1974 led from the Veneziano model to the bosonic string theory. They include the construction of the N -point amplitude for scalar particles, its factorization through the introduction of an infinite number of oscillators and the proof that the physical subspace was a positive-definite Hilbert space. We als...
متن کاملPlanckian Energy Scattering , Colliding Plane Gravitational Waves and Black Hole Creation
In a series of papers Amati, Ciafaloni and Veneziano and 't Hooft conjectured that black holes occur in the collision of two light particles at planckian energies. In this paper we discuss a possible scenario for such a process by using the Chandrasekhar-Ferrari-Xanthopoulos duality between the Kerr black hole solution and colliding plane gravitational waves. We clarify issues arising in the de...
متن کاملA Fresh Look at Generalized Veneziano Amplitudes
The dual resonance model, which was a precursor of string theory was based upon the idea that two-particle scattering amplitudes should be expressible equivalently as a sum of contributions of an infinite number of s channel poles each corresponding to a finite number of particles with definite spin, or as a similar sum of t channel poles. The famous example of Veneziano [1] satisfies all these...
متن کاملVeneziano amplitude for winding strings.
String configurations with nonzero winding number describe soliton string states. We compute the Veneziano amplitude for the scattering of arbitrary winding states and show that in the large radius limit the strings always scatter trivially and with no change in the individual winding numbers of the strings. In this limit, then, these states scatter as true solitons.
