Aspects of Effective Field Theories from Scattering Amplitudes

<p>On-shell methods offer an alternative definition of quantum field theory at tree-level. We first determine the space of constructible theories solely from dimensional analysis, Lorentz invariance, and locality. We show that all amplitudes in a renormalizable theory in four dimensions are co...
