Null reduction and dynamical realization of Carrollian conformal symmetries

High Energy Physics - Theory 2026-01-27 v3

Abstract

We start from a Lorentzian action in a deformed light-cone background and applying the method of null reduction leads to a Carrollian action in one lower spacetime dimensions. We also identify the correct light-cone definitions of the symmetry generators and their dynamical forms in terms of the fields and take the c0c\rightarrow0 limit. It is observed that these generators produce the known kinematic Carrollian conformal algebraic commutation relations.
