It is natural to regulate an infinite-sized system by imposing a boundary condition at finite distance, placing the system in a "box." This breaks symmetries, though the breaking is small when the box is large. One should thus be able to…

We describe a novel twistorial construction of the asymptotic BMS symmetries at null infinity for asymptotically flat spacetimes. We define BMS twistors as spinor solutions to some set of components of the usual spacetime twistor equation…

The spacetime in the interior of a black hole can be described by an homogeneous line element, for which the Einstein--Hilbert action reduces to a one-dimensional mechanical model. We have shown in [SciPost Phys. 10, 022 (2021),…

In this paper, we find a class of Carrollian and Galilean contractions of (extended) BMS algebra in 3+1 and 2+1 dimensions. To this end, we investigate possible embeddings of 3D/4D Poincar\'{e} into the BMS${}_3$ and BMS${}_4$ algebras,…

We construct two possible candidates for the non-relativistic $\mathfrak{bms}_4$ algebra in 4 space-time dimensions by contracting the original relativistic $\mathfrak{bms}_4$ algebra. The $\mathfrak{bms}_4$ algebra is infinite-dimensional,…
