Perturbative Gravity from QCD Amplitudes
Abstract
We demonstrate that QCD gluon amplitudes can be used to construct a Lagrangian for gravity. This procedure makes use of perturbative `squaring' relations between gravity and gauge theory that follow from string theory. We explicitly carry out the construction for up to five-point interactions and discuss a set of field variables in the Einstein-Hilbert Lagrangian for interpreting the Lagrangian obtained from QCD. A spin-off from our analysis is that it can be used to provide simpler tree-level gravity Feynman rules than for conventional gauges.Keywords
