Abstract

In this paper, we derive a TTˉT\bar{T} deformed soft graviton theorem in the context of celestial holography. As a concrete example, it illustrates that a two-dimensional irrelevant deformation can be applied to a four-dimensional theory at the level of amplitudes. We argue that the TTˉT\bar{T} deformation has a close relation to the loop-correction from the amplitude side which could provide an alternative way to construct an ultraviolet complete quantum theory of gravity.
