Carrollian Partition Function for Bulk Yang-Mills Theory

The path integral over massless quantum fields in Minkowski space with scattering boundary conditions defines a Carrollian partition function on the null boundary. We develop this framework for non-Abelian gauge theory, both from a general perspective and through explicit examples that highlight subtle aspects of soft modes and asymptotic symmetries. These include falloff conditions, Goldstone modes and their antipodal matching, and factors of two associated with conditionally convergent integrals arising in the derivation of soft theorems. We employ path integral (rather than canonical) methods throughout.
