 So, good afternoon everybody and particular greetings to Dear Kraemer remotely for today. I would like to present a talk on classical gravity at high precision. And you see it, this is work together with different people. With Andreas Meyer, with Peter Marquardt from Daisy and with Gerhard Schaefer from Jena. Now, why I'm talking on gravity, okay, this is certainly a recent work of mine. But there's also a connection to Dirk, and he has published several papers on this field. And one is a remark on quantum gravity, I remember, 2011. I think we should go back to the other. I want to hear this. I'm sorry. I think I think there was just a mistake that somebody had their mic on at the wrong time. Okay, not worry. Okay, good. I will continue. And then there was a very interesting development that it was the paper not so non renormalizable gravity. I had the chance to listen to several lectures by Dirk at a gathering at the clay Institute during summer 2008. And that is definitely an interesting topic in getting say a new avenue towards this old problem. And that is the context of gravity. Einstein gravity can be renormalized. Now, Dirk is, of course, regularly contributing to basic conferences and that's already over decades. Let me just mention loops and legs and here there is a conference photograph of a conference special conference and QCD in Berlin 2009. And you see him here in the, in the Gaffering and this is an high valued conference being you see Nobel laureates actually two of them the third was still in the airplane. You see the CERN director general and then now the new science director of CERN from January so this is administratively and scientifically quite a lot of people came sometime to Berlin and of course notably Dirk. And you see Francis Brown here in 2008 this 2009 back. Dirk did something very important in Berlin, namely creating the colleague for Mathematica and Physique, the KMPB, and this has been initiated by him and this is an important platform for scientific exchange and we had quite some conferences during the years, and we we met at Boston, Linz, and during several workshops at Lisuzion to also build what he organized, and often after that, topical review books were created to cover the achievements made. So let me say we are very happy, Dirk, that we have you at Berlin and we hope this will be the case for a longer time and that this is very important for the scientific scene in Berlin. So let me say once again happy birthday and of course, many happy returns. Now let me talk now about the topic in closer terms. Let me move this here. And the motion of two gravitating masses. So what one has for this relatively simple motion is a so called conservative part and during the rotation, the masses of the masses each around the other. This is also a rotation part because gravitational waves are emitted. So we are going to consider the case of relatively low velocities. This is also the case for like all inspiring that their velocities are small against the velocity of light. The form of the orbit, of course, becomes more and more complicated when we go to higher and higher orders. And the lowest order is Newtonian level the usual elliptic motion which you learn at high school. And then it starts already at one PN the movement of the perihelion this which was first observed by Mercury in the case of Mercury. And we go several orders and the state of the art is now the fifth post Newtonian orders for first results already on the six post Newtonian order. Certainly, there are some rigorous results, namely the Schwarzschild solution. This is basically the case when the test body surrounds a very heavy mass that is known to all orders, but also there is in the next term. This is the so-called order new term that a reduced mass is considered to be in the next order for the two particles. And there is a formalism the self force formalism. And that has calculated these corrections to the 21st and a half post Newtonian order. We will take, of course, a profit of these two aspects a little bit later. And I have to say that we will not consider radiation but the radiation free case for the moment and of course one can also consider radiation but this is not the topic of this talk. And we will study in this way the inspiring face so the face when the two massive objects that are not yet coalescing but far enough away of each other and rotate around that this is the scope of what I've under considered. And the whole dynamics is important, of course for the description of the gravitational wave signals because these parts are just a part of that and they can be measured. And the goal is at the moment to derive the Hamiltonian dynamics. It is fifth post Newtonian order. Now I show you here some pictures of the LIGO Virgo data. And most of them show this gravitational wave signals you see for the case of Blackwell merges and tear down. We have also a picture on how it looks in these detectors. And two neutron stars would, would merge. The process is as follows you see first of all in starting oscillation here. This is the inspiring face then you come to the merger when these heavy objects become pretty close. And then unite into one object. This is a so called ring down and this is this part of the signal. So this is not what I'm going to describe at the end of the talk but this is the classical process, how it would be seen in the detectors. There are different ways to calculate things in in perturbative gravity. There is the post Newtonian expansion. So you have here a diagram measuring are in unit in certain units as a dimensionless quantity and the mass ratio of these two masses. So if you go to the one, then this is of course the equal mass case, and then you can go to extreme masses. This is what you do here. And here, this is the radius measured in the Newton constant times, the master can can can measures So the post Newtonian approach. This is what I'm talking about. Then by effective one body methods I will talk to talk about shortly, you can make a link towards numerical relativity. This is send a non perturbative solution. And then if you go to extreme, extremely small masses say towards the test body. And with respect to an heavy mass, you can do the cell force formalism and also get results. So but we will do the post Newtonian expansion in the following. Right after gravity was found. And we by Einstein, and partly also by Hilbert and Lawrence and trust in 1917 calculated the first post Newtonian correction. And that was then also repeated some 20 years later by Einstein infield and Hoffman this is famous result. And then the, around the end of the 60s, Chandra Secker and others have made the second, second post Newtonian correction and then there were of course also these radiation terms here. And then we had then the third post Newtonian was fully understood around 2000 and 2014 in the years after this was then the time and during which the first post Newtonian level has been fully understood. Part which is completely finished. And not only for the unpolarized case but also the spin effects and radiation and many more very particular things. So we will do non relativistic effective field theory this has been in gravity initiated by Goldberg Rothstein and we will follow work by Cole and small can a little bit later. And I will guide you from path integrals to generate Feynman diagrams of course in that case to the post Newtonian Hamiltonians and observables by methods of quantum from quantum field theory. It's not necessary to perform these calculations with these methods. It's only one way and it's not been the first way. Which has been used to will see this on a later slide. You see, most of these works have been done totally differently and achieved much earlier than this effective field theory methods and it's even now that effective field theory methods are a little bit behind of what can be achieved but it's it's just one method which is helpful in arriving say deriving these results and one has to see how efficient this is in the future. Now, the do go a little bit more into technical details. We consider point like objects and will not consider spin and finite size effects in the following. Then of course we have to work in some gauge. So this is here the harmonic gauge in the following. We have a singularity problems. Therefore, we have to choose as in quantum field theory, the dimensional regularization. We do this in in three months to epsilon dimensions and then the action has three contributions. The Einstein Hilbert action you see here which is Kayla, then a cage fixing term which is tied up to the Christopher symbol. And we see the the particle term. This is the the kinetic term of the black hole with the two masses here. This is the third term of the action. So why can quantum field theory methods be of help here and that is understandable of course any dynamical physical theory can be traced back to Lagrange formalism and can be derived from the first principle of the least action this is where all the physics comes from. And in the near to the non relativistic limit Einstein gravity possesses an expansion the Newton's constant so we can perform an effective field theory. And we will do this using the path integral because we need a good tool to generate all the the Feynman rules for the individual in the diagrams. And that's the way we go. So this will lead to an associated effective field theory representation, which is not necessarily build on flat space gravitons. But we will describe the the gravitation by effective fields and more and more complicated vertices which I will show you a little bit later. And so order by order new interaction vertices as known for effective fields in general will potentially at least appear. So this approach is systematic and is perturbative and will still represent full Einstein gravity. The key issue is to reduce all this enormous amount of terms we will need to calculate to master integrals which is of course not so many. And then one has to calculate the master integrals and finally is getting to the result. So the current level are five loop integrals and they partly range into from the physics side, the six post Newtonian level. This effective field theory was of course earlier namely as back in 1985, Caswell and LaPage already used in QCD and so you see this action will be transmitted into an effective action. And this is done in representing the gravitons in terms of so-called potential gravitons where the their component K zero is just proportional to the ratio of the velocity over our and the spatial component. So we have like one over R and radiation gravitons have that is this behavior. And so is quanta are gathered together with what we call potential terms and then we have in the tail terms, we have this radiation gravitons in the Feynman rules, but I will detail this a little bit later. The expansion of the action has to take place. And for that sake, we have to go to the metric and the metric tensor and this was a parameterization by cold and small can some 10 years ago, you have in total 10 fields. This is a scalar field five, three vector fields and six tensor fields sigma ij, which couple in this way with the velocity to the masses, which are in the game. Now, the first thing what we want to do is to calculate the potential. So we write down the potential interaction. This is minus IV here between the two big masses and then this decomposes of course into exchange of these different effective fields here. And then one has to observe what is the behavior of the temporal and the spatial modes which I said already before, and one has to expand to the enormous step, whatever you have to go at the corresponding propagators. Now we want to calculate a potential. So this is not just a scattering process but is a logarithm of a scattering process and that is that that is done in this way. And this is certainly so that we generate much to many Feynman diagrams, which will not contribute on the classical level. There is no pure graviton loops are allowed because they would be on the quantum level, so they would appear with the Planck's constant, then there should not be single source corrections. The self energies here would dress the black holes and they can be absorbed, of course, and they will not change these sources very much actually in an eclipsable manner. So this is also not considered and we will not consider source reducible diagrams. So we have to investigate things which lead usually in time ordering to certain combinatorial factors. Now, all together, we have for instance these two diagrams and then this can be covered to that diagram and if you put everything together it's actually the square of this single exchange here. So those things can be nicely algorithmized in computer programs and that's the usual way you extract potentials from scattering cross sections and amplitudes and this is the way you have to do that. This is the final thing and then you see you get then, if you take go to the potential you get then this is as the first term and then the whole the whole line of course up is just representing the potential disc graph. Now, I said already that most of the time it was so that the older times actually the results were known derived by totally different techniques and you see this here that only in 2004 the one PN was done this way. Then 2008 we had two PN and then three PN was 2011 11 years later than the the original, at least more than 11 years maybe. And then there were the calculation of the static contribution to four PN. There was performed in this paper and there was a little thing to be corrected by Damor and Jaroszki and it took until 2019 until everything about four PN was understood and in 2014 already the results was a better front better front techniques. Now what will be new and this is this came within two days. Actually the submission to the archive is five hours different only and by two different approaches, one by Fofa Mastrolias, Durrani, Sturman, Torus, Bobadilla and one by our group, and we had this calculation up in Itzio as I described and these the other authors. We had a combinatorial argument which is possible at odd PN so it was possible at five PN and we didn't know about this but this was very nice and the results have fully agreed. But the static contribution is of course not everything this is only the beginning of something and still I want to want to dwell on it a little bit because one can explain things very nicely in this context. More generally, when we want to go to five PN, we have to generate by a generator of Feynman diagrams, the diagrams and if you do that, you will get an enormous amount nearly one million Feynman diagrams. Then there is all kind of Lorentz algebra you have to do and or maybe Galilean algebra if you want because it's not relativistic. This is done by form. And then one has to reduce the master integral so many more things are done by form but not only these the Lorentz algebra, but the reduction to master integrals is done by a reduction program which is called Crusher by Mark Watt and Seidel. And then we have to throw away before a lot of diagrams because they don't contribute and that's about 200,000 diagrams. And then you see a handful of master integrals have to be known and they were known already in the static process and of course calculated several times. And one can then solve the problem. This is this way, at least what the potential terms are concerned. Now, let me show you a little bit more details. The what the diagrams are you see these five loop diagrams. This is the the the scalar interaction than you have. We have tensor interactions here. And actually, there is no vector interactions in the static part. They only will contribute in when we have velocity corrections. So the word on the Feynman rules. So we have here the different propagators the tensor the scalar and then you have all kind of vertices. And this vertices look like simple like in scalar electrodynamics. And then it becomes gradually more complicated for the four point verdicts and then you have three point vertices and so on. And then if you go higher and higher you get more and more. And then the end only the computer knows about the consistent set of Feynman rules. And of course, this is foolproof setup. So you you will not have a horse over there. This is all directly computed. Now the next thing is you you get apologies and we have of course kind of self energies to calculate. This is the master. There's a master's propagators which we we have propagators. You see here these topologies and you have to think of all these fields. And then you do the reduction to master in the cross. And the IPP reduction will then lead to only a handful of tracks where you master integrals you do the wrong series and then you get the poles and you get the constant terms and so on. The poles you get is only a first order to this order in the post Newtonian expansion and you get it in the potential terms and what we will discuss a little bit later also in the tail terms. And so you have some easier parts where the calculation is done by inserting things and this is basically you have to know the beta function for that and then there is a more complicated thing. But this is also known and the standard technologies allow to calculate those diagrams for instance. So in a nutshell, I collect these things are often beta function type solutions here several products of beta functions and then you have one which is not not so easy but you see you can also calculate this and you can if it would be needed you can go even higher. But at the moment it's not needed because all the poles are only one over epsilon so you have to go to this term. And that is it you see logarithm of two here, but this is intermediate in the moment and then we will see what is happening for the static potential so you start out with Newton. Then you get the static potential by the first post Newtonian thing. And if you go to in the in the harmonic age of a particular gauge to five pn you get this and you don't see any log two you don't see any CETA here and this. But we will see the pi squared or CETA to a little bit later when it comes to the velocity corrections. Now, let me explain you the general case a little bit. This is of course tied up with extremely long formulae, and it would be difficult to swallow the details here so but I will list for the beginning first of all the principle steps of the calculation. So the goal is at the end and Hamiltonian of course this is not what we start with, we start with the action and therefore we get first a Lagrangian, and then one has to perform a Legendre transformation to the Hamiltonian before one is able to do that one has to remove accelerations, the time derivatives of accelerations of higher order and so on. There are particular methods where one has to be extremely careful with to build this down but this is known in the literature how to do that in the early literature. And what I was mainly explaining here is the so called potential term, but there is also in the, this is a near zone description of the demotion, and there is a far starting from 4 pn also a far zone description. And so a subset of these terms are the so called at the end of the day, the non local contributions. And there is also some local contributions in the tail terms, but most of the local contributions come from the potential term. So, we will use both pictures and it's actually needed to use them for technical, at least if you're well I mean there's lots of reasons why one should use both pictures, but one will turn out to be a technical point so we will use for that sake, the separation in both pictures. Now what it turns out is both the potential corrections and the tail corrections are singular and so they have poles in one over epsilon. And the ones of course to remove these things and see whether there is a singularity free situation. But of course this is not uncommon in quantum field theory we have much, much higher singularities in the Lagrangian and the Hamiltonians and here. And the, we calculate the potential terms in d dimensions as a reason why we have to call to calculate, we at least have to calculate both of these quantities in d dimensions. So then we want to see what happens to the singularities and we will cover. First of all, we have a look on to the singular and logarithmic contributions to the tail term and add them to the potential term and then see what what is happening. And then actually the singularities will not go away and this has to do with the harmonic gauge we use that we have to apply another canonical transformation and then we will have a Hamiltonian which is Paul free. And then we can also arrange the, the canonical transformation for the logarithmic term such that we meet the non-logal terms which have been nicely worked out before us by Bini Damour and Gerallico at 5 pn. And that's the, that's the way we go to have a comparison. And then calculating age, the contribution to age tail we use because of this effective field theory method, the method of expansion by region, which has been introduced by Benekir and Smirnov, and later described by Janssen. We have shown that 5 pn there are no overlap terms, and one can actually organize this in a very, very nice manner. And we, we will get as a result, as I said already, the non-logal Hamiltonian, the canonical transformation makes finally the Hamiltonian Paul free, which is sent in slightly different coordinates, but the harmonic coordinates. And the formulae are still very large, so I won't show them here, but continue with the discussion, at least for the couple of minutes. And so what we, what we could do is that we, we wanted to look on the potential contributions first. And then we notice that from the tail terms we get in this, this mass ratio, a, at the first order and the second order contributions, so we, if you want to make a discussion without the tail terms we have to restrict the discussion to new to the zero and the powers new to the three up to new to the five. And indeed, we could show between the result derived by Damouret, the HEOB, physical equivalence by a canonical transformation. And we should notice that not even the simplest case, namely the Schwarzschild contribution is easily seen in these Hamiltonians, or in the going back in the in the Feynman diagrams. So they are basically everywhere and only you see it only in the result. And that gives you, first of all, a very good check to the to the whole calculation. And one is, of course, all this happy if all these checks work out and there's different other checks you can perform also. Now, the, the, there's also another being the methods been there. There was a discussion on the results by burn on the third post Minkowski and the approximation which is slightly different but post Newtonian and you can go to six pn we did this and here. So this is quite a part of the all the terms to six pn, of course, not the hardest part of the beginning. And this has been also confirmed by be neither more and Geralico. And that means that, of course, five pn is covered that we have also here in a very essential test. And it turns out that in the measure regularization to get the order new terms is not so easy, but we have a couple of days ago found a special treatment and now we can say more than our last preprint that we have all the order new terms right. So, there is still a series of more local tail terms which contribute order new squared, which have to be dealt with and this is still work in progress. And I should mention sets the nonloader contract versions of the tail terms in four pn and five pn have been calculated and we have agreement. We need a more and Geralico. This is not just the same calculation. This calculation was done in dimensional regularization and in the docs, the digital local terms are by product of that. And then in course of this we have of course also achieved that we get pull free Hamiltonians. Now, let me go right away not to any Hamiltonian but show observables. Because the different approaches will lead to different Hamiltonians and then you have to do canonical transformations to the map and that for that you have to have local representation. And as the non-local contributions to all these observables are known to five pn by now and agreeing. I can now discuss the local contribution to Perry Astron once, and this is the general case here. And what you what you see is we have actually all the terms, but the new square terms. So they are not yet listed in this list of the device bear contributions are listed. So they are they are known and they also agree with the work by by the more and collaborators and we work at the moment on the the new square terms, which are just rational in this case and to see what this will come. I can't tell you the final result on this now from the general motion you can of course go to the circular motion. And in the the the non-local terms were calculated for the circular situation. And we can add them in this is this term and the other term and that this is this one for Perry Astron and once you find them in our paper this is not not a very long expression but I have left them open. And here you see, we have two terms which we could not yet determine this is we work on that at the moment, but the associated terms here by square terms are there. And from what you saw on the last two slides. We can now go a step further, but what the more it all had already obtained and they call their method, the 2D 40 method, because it combines a lot of knowledge on this post Newtonian expansion. And also post Minkowski and expansion to different calculation and methods to fix the different parameters and this is very many of the Hamiltonian. There were two constants not yet determined now we could determine the pie square contributions already and we have all over agreement with this other group. And our calculation is up initial so we don't use any of these constraints. Our calculation is just based on effective field zero methods to get there. Now, certainly this is not so easy part and we have to see what the outcome of that is and but I can't tell you more details at the moment just that we work very hard on this calculation. Let me show you to the force post Newtonian all this also some phenomenon logical result and this is a bending energy normalized here over the reduced mass and then you see that this is the Newtonian limit, then you get one p and two p and three p and four p and this is the test particle limit here. And this would be the range in which play. So you get a range in which black holes merges is a bit wider and the smaller range where Newton starts and Newton starts would merge this is basically here, and the for the black holes you need a bit more and that is the Schwarzschild solution and we expect in somewhere here in the middle, the five p and the result but this is going to come. And then we can make a similar statement for the peri austral advance you see here this. It is Newton star Newton star motion and then this all of a range is black hole black hole, but the current sensitivity is and then you see the whole row and this is also here. Very singular and this is singular at this parameter x one over six this goes to infinity that is the Schwarzschild limit and then you see these corrections and we expect and the five p and result somewhere here. And you see that the convergence is not so nice. If you go to the higher values of x, and that will then invoke resumption and things which are already known in the literature and which the more and collaborators have used in the past already to lower orders to to get, say, a more stable result. So this brings me now to my conclusions and the. So, the inspirational phase of compact binary systems is very well described by the post Newton in expansion. So you have velocities which are of that order but still normalized to the light velocity of light is smaller against one effective field theory and calculation methods from quantum field theory are very effective for high post Newtonian orders always provided one is using intense computer algebra and suitably large computers but that is what people do in QCD anyway so this is not anything new. Then we have already some one and a half years ago calculated a static gravitational potential to five loops. And then following with different other papers we approached the five p and Hamiltonian and it has been determined up to a small set of rational terms, which is of order new squared of this order parameter in the mass ratio. And these results are obtained performing a five loop calculation of nearly 200,000 five and diagrams with partly very complicated vertices and the calculation has been performed up in it's your black we do that in QCD also. So, higher order corrections extend the area perturbatively accessible towards the region were presently only pure numerical measures methods are applied but to bridge between them this is still, of course, another issue I don't want to go into. And then it is also something else happening I didn't talk about. This is simply the so called possible in golf skin approach where other people are very active for instance we burn in this group, then Mr. Pardo and his group and then this was also, of course, initiated by people that more as so many other things and the, there is also very interesting work by him under very recently and, but from the full calculations, we talk about to look more difficult. And to do and the debate to five loops is still open but it's technically, of course, more ambitious. So thank you very much for your attendance. Thank you if you have questions, please feel free to raise your hand or just unmute yourself so we have a question from David, I think. Yes, I was rather surprised by the fact that your number of master integrals was less at five loops and four loops something funny going on that. You may have to do the table is for five loops. I mean there's another table for four loops. This is the four loops in the five in the five pn seeds this way. Thank you. It's only the static saying what is adding and then this is don't don't worry about this. Thank you. That's a very elementary question. Could you explain what the Perry Astrone advanced means. What is it that is. Yeah that this is when you know what the motion of the periodion of the Macquarie uses right. Normally you have an elliptic normally you have this elliptic motion, but these ellipse will in its in its pole will will move along with that due to due to one due to one pn corrections. And now we talk about even even higher order corrections. And, but you can this motion can be measured in by astronomical observations if you want. And therefore this is an observable and this observable that you can link I did not, did not write down the, the relation to the Hamiltonian. But like the energy did bending energy, you can relate this. This quantity to the Hamiltonian by a derivative of one of the Delany variables so one Delany variable is the angular momentum. You have another quantity so it depends on two of these Delany variables and introduced in the in the 19th century. And basically it is something where you derive the Hamiltonian, if the first derivative of the Hamiltonian with respect to these quantities. And you get an observable description which an astronomer code measure. And that's the very point I mean the, the, you have to define an observable to get rid of all these gauge degrees of freedom, you know, and that's that's why we choose this we could have chosen also something something else. Thank you very much. So please let's thank Johannes again for his very nice talk.
