In a recent paper, here referred to as part I, we considered the celestial four-gluon amplitude with one gluon represented by the shadow transform of the corresponding primary field operator. This correlator is ill-defined because it…

In celestial conformal field theory, gluons are represented by primary fields with dimensions $\Delta=1+i\lambda$, $\lambda\in\mathbb{R}$ and spin $J=\pm 1$, in the adjoint representation of the gauge group. All two- and three-point…

We compute scattering amplitudes involving one massive scalar and two, three, or four gravitons. We show that when the conformal dimension of the massive scalar is set to zero, the resulting celestial correlators depend {\it only} on the…

We compute the four-point correlator of two gluon light-ray operators and two gluon primaries from the four-gluon celestial amplitude in $(2,2)$ signature spacetime. The correlator is non-distributional and allows us to verify that…

In celestial holography, four-dimensional scattering amplitudes are considered as two-dimensional conformal correlators of a putative two-dimensional celestial conformal field theory (CCFT). The simplest way of converting momentum space…

In this paper, we analyze the loop corrections to celestial OPE for gluons and gravitons. Even at the loop level, the soft gluons and gravitons have conformal dimensions $\Delta=1-\mathbb Z_{\geq 0}$. The only novelty is the presence of…

We seek the inverse formulas for the cosmological unifying relation between gluons and conformally coupled scalars. We demonstrate that the weight-shifting operators derived from the conformal symmetry at the dS late-time boundary can serve…

We present differential double-copy relations between gluon and graviton three-point functions in (A)dS$_{d+1}$. We introduce a set of differential operators in (A)dS that naturally generalize on-shell kinematics of scattering amplitudes in…

We argue that the scattering of gravitons in ordinary Einstein gravity possesses a hidden conformal symmetry at tree level in any number of dimensions. The presence of this conformal symmetry is indicated by the dilaton soft theorem in…

We present the first computation of three-point celestial amplitudes in Minkowski space of massless scalars, photons, gluons, and gravitons. Such amplitudes were previously considered to be zero in the literature because the corresponding…

We discuss the properties of recently constructed "single-valued" celestial four-gluon amplitudes. We show that the amplitude factorizes into the "current" part and the "scalar" part. The current factor is given by the group-dependent part…
