w1+ and Carrollian holography

摘要

In a 1 + 2D Carrollian conformal field theory, the Ward identities of the two local fields S 0 + \( {S}_0^{+} \) and S 1 + \( {S}_1^{+} \) , entirely built out of the Carrollian conformal stress-tensor, contain respectively up to the leading and the subleading positive helicity soft graviton theorems in the 1 + 3D asymptotically flat space-time. This work investigates how the subsubleading soft graviton theorem can be encoded into the Ward identity of a Carrollian conformal field S 2 + \( {S}_2^{+} \) . The operator product expansion (OPE) S 2 + S 2 + \( {S}_2^{+}{S}_2^{+} \) is constructed using general Carrollian conformal symmetry principles and the OPE commutativity property, under the assumption that any time-independent, non-Identity field that is mutually local with S 0 + \( {S}_0^{+} \) , S 1 + \( {S}_1^{+} \) , S 2 + \( {S}_2^{+} \) has positive Carrollian scaling dimension. It is found that, for this OPE to be consistent, another local field S 3 + \( {S}_3^{+} \) must automatically exist in the theory. The presence of an infinite tower of local fields S k 3 + \( {S}_{k\ge 3}^{+} \) is then revealed iteratively as a consistency condition for the S 2 + S k 1 + \( {S}_2^{+}{S}_{k-1}^{+} \) OPE. The general S k + S l + \( {S}_k^{+}{S}_l^{+} \) OPE is similarly obtained and the symmetry algebra manifest in this OPE is found to be the Kac-Moody algebra of the wedge sub-algebra of w1+. The Carrollian time-coordinate plays the central role in this purely holographic construction. The 2D Celestial conformally soft graviton primary H k z z ¯ \( {H}^k\left(z,\overline{z}\right) \) is realized to be contained in the Carrollian conformal primary S 1 k + t z z ¯ \( {S}_{1-k}^{+}\left(t,z,\overline{z}\right) \) . Finally, the existence of the infinite tower of fields S k + \( {S}_k^{+} \) is shown to be directly related to an infinity of positive helicity soft graviton theorems.
