Recently, spin-one wavefunctions in four dimensions that are conformal primaries of the Lorentz group SL(2,C) were constructed. We compute low-point, tree-level gluon scattering amplitudes in the space of these conformal primary…

We present a discrete basis of solutions of the massless Klein-Gordon equation in 3+1 Minkowski space which transform as sl(2,C) Lorentz/conformal primaries and descendants, and whose elements all have integer conformal dimension. We show…

Carrollian holography aims to express gravity in four-dimensional asymptotically flat spacetime in terms of a dual three-dimensional Carrollian CFT living at null infinity. Carrollian amplitudes are massless scattering amplitudes written in…

The decomposition of 4-point correlation functions into conformal partial waves is a central tool in the study of conformal field theory. We compute these partial waves for scalar operators in Minkowski momentum space, and find a…

The leading soft photon theorem implies that four-dimensional scattering amplitudes are controlled by a two-dimensional (2D) $U(1)$ Kac-Moody symmetry that acts on the celestial sphere at null infinity ($\mathcal{I}$). This celestial $U(1)$…
