- Title
Gravity as a double copy of gauge theory: from amplitudes to black holes.

- Abstract
We discuss the relation between perturbative gauge theory and perturbative gravity, and look at how this relation extends to some exact classical solutions. First, we give an overview of the double copy prescription that takes gauge theory amplitudes into gravity amplitudes, which has been crucial to progress in perturbative studies of supergravity. Then, we review how the self-dual sectors provide an important insight into the relation between the theories. A key role is played by a kinematic algebraic structure mirroring the color structure. Finally, we review how these ideas extend to some exact classical solutions, namely black holes and plane waves.
