Abstract
We explore deformations of Warped Conformal Field Theories (WCFTs) in two dimensions as examples of deformed non-relativistic quantum field theories. WCFTs are quantum field theories with a VirasoroU(1) Kac-Moody symmetry. We compute the deformed symmetry algebra of a deformed holographic WCFT, using the asymptotic symmetries of AdS with deformed Comp\'ere, Song and Strominger (CSS) boundary conditions. The U(1) Kac-Moody symmetry survives provided one allows the boundary metric to transform under the asymptotic symmetry. The Virasoro sector remains but is now deformed and no longer chiral.
