A discussion of the Glauber and Blankenbecler–Goldberger impact parameter representation for the scattering amplitude is presented with emphasis on the wave function approach. The treatment makes clear the relationship between the approximations made to derive either of the two amplitudes. Both on-energy-shell and off-energy-shell scatterings are treated. A derivation of the two representations in momentum space is presented bringing out the relationship between the approximations in a coordinate space treatment and the momentum space treatment.

The Lippman–Schwinger equation is solved to obtain an impact parameter representation for the forward and backward scattering. The Blankenbecler and Goldberger type amplitude is obtained in the high energy limit without any angular restriction. Then, the off energy shell amplitude in the forward and backward cone is obtained, which reduces to Glauber form on the energy shell. Finally, unitarity restriction and the scope of the formalism are discussed.

Abstract Color-kinematics duality in the adjoint has proven key to the relationship between gauge and gravity theory scattering amplitude predictions. In recent work, we demonstrated that at four-point tree-level, a small number of color-dual EFT building blocks could encode all higher-derivative single-trace massless corrections to gauge and gravity theories compatible with adjoint double-copy. One critical aspect was the trivialization of building higher-derivative color-weights — indeed, it is the mixing of kinematics with non-adjoint-type color-weights (like the permutation-invariant d4) which permits description via adjoint double-copy. Here we find that such ideas clarify the predictions of local five-point higher-dimensional operators as well. We demonstrate how a single scalar building block can be combined with color structures to build higher-derivative color factors that generate, through double copy, the amplitudes associated with higher-derivative gauge-theory operators. These may then be suitably mapped, through another double-copy, to higher-derivative corrections in gravity.
