Motivated by recent applications of Carroll symmetries we investigate the geometry of flat and curved (AdS) Carroll space and the symmetries of a particle moving in such a space both in the bosonic as well as in the supersymmetric case. In…

Scalar field theories in $\text{(A)dS}_{2}$ with integer scaling dimensions $\Delta = k+1$ are characterised by the existence of a pair of (anti-)holomorphic higher-spin currents. We explore the consequences of this to describe their…

Magnetic Carrollian theories provide a natural setting for field theories with nontrivial spatial structure in the Carroll limit and are therefore natural candidates for flat-space holographic duals. Embedding such boundary theories into a…

We used the Cartan formalism to construct fermionic models that are compatible with Galilean or Carrollian symmetry and rigid scaling symmetry. The free Carrollian fermion model exhibits conformal Carrollian symmetry which is isomorphic to…

We systematically explore the construction of Nielsen's circuit complexity to a non-Lorentzian field theory keeping in mind its connection with flat holography. We consider a 2d boundary field theory dual to 3d asymptotically flat…

After a review of symmetries and classical solutions involved in the AdS3/CFT2 correspondence, we apply a similar analysis to asymptotically flat spacetimes at null infinity in 3 and 4 dimensions. In the spirit of two dimensional conformal…

We consider two dimensional superconformal Carrollian theories with boundaries and construct two variants of the Boundary Superconformal Carrollian Algebra (BSCCA), viz. the Homogeneous and the Inhomogeneous, by making appropriate…

We study the concept of Carrollian spacetime starting from its underlying fiber-bundle structure. The latter admits an Ehresmann connection, which enables a natural separation of time and space, preserved by the subset of Carrollian…

Two dimensional field theories invariant under the Bondi-Metzner-Sachs (BMS) group are conjectured to be dual to asymptotically flat spacetimes in three dimensions. In this paper, we continue our investigations of the modular properties of…

We discuss kinematical features of conformal Carroll field theories in three dimensions (3d). Conformal extension of Carroll algebra is infinite dimensional even in 3d unlike its relativistic counterpart, and hence 3d Carroll CFTs share…

Carroll symmetry arises from Poincar\'e symmetry when the speed of light is sent to zero. In this work, we apply the Lie algebra expansion method to find the Carroll versions of different gravity models in three space-time dimensions. Our…
