In this paper, we study the asymptotic structure of the Fefferman-Graham ambient metric. We prove that every straight ambient metric admits a conformal completion with a well-defined null infinity, and that the asymptotic expansion of the…

We explore an unusual symmetry in a field theory on a specific (1+1)-dimensional curved spacetime, which has an interesting interpretation as an approximate asymptotic Weyl symmetry. Unlike the conventional Weyl symmetry, the boundary term…

We describe asymptotic symmetries at spatial infinity of asymptotically flat spacetimes within the context of a generalization of the Beig-Schmidt-Ashtekar-Romano-framework. We demonstrate that it is possible to relax certain smoothness…

The goal of this paper is to provide a definition for a notion of extended boundary at time and space-like infinity which, following Figueroa-O'Farril--Have--Prohazka--Salzer, we refer to as Ti and Spi. This definition applies to…
