Exploiting the analytic properties of the scattering amplitude, we provide an alternative but equivalent definition of the standard Mellin transform used to obtain celestial correlation functions. From this representation, we identify a…

We explore the flat limit of massless scalar scattering in $\mathrm{AdS}_2$. We derive the $1 \to 1$ $\mathcal{S}$-matrix from the CFT $2$-point function. We show a key property of the $2 \to 2$ $\mathcal{S}$-matrix in $2d$, where the…

The spectrum of half-BPS single-particle operators of the D1-D5 system in the supergravity regime is dual to the spectrum of Kaluza-Klein modes of tensor and graviton multiplets in AdS$_3\times$S$^3$. We present simple formulae for all…

We study the renormalization group flow equations for correlation functions of weakly coupled quantum field theories in AdS. Taking the limit where the external points approach the conformal boundary, we obtain a flow of conformally…

We compute the Mellin transforms of various two-dimensional integrable $S$-matrices, providing the first explicit, non-perturbative realizations of celestial CFT. In two dimensions, the Mellin transform is simply the Fourier transform in…

We study an inequality between a scaling exponent $A$ in the Regge limit of tree-level flat space S-matrices with external massless scalars and another scaling exponent $A'$ in the Regge limit of the corresponding four-point scalar…

We explicitly calculate a Witten diagram with general spinor field exchange on $(d+1)$-dimensional Euclidean Anti-de Sitter space, which is necessary to evaluate four-point correlation functions with spinor fields when we make use of the…

We review the computation of scattering amplitudes of planar maximally super-symmetric Yang-Mills at strong coupling. By using the AdS/CFT duality the problem boils down to the computation of the area of certain minimal surfaces on AdS. The…

We prove a precise form of AdS bulk locality by deriving analytical two-sided bounds on bulk Wilson coefficients. Our bounds are on the Wilson coefficients themselves, rather than their ratios, as is typically found in the literature.…

Scattering amplitudes are tempered distributions, which are defined through their action on functions in the Schwartz space $S(\mathbb{R})$ by duality. For massless particles, their conformal properties become manifest when considering…
