The 4D 4-point scattering amplitude of massless scalars via a massive exchange is expressed in a basis of conformal primary particle wavefunctions. This celestial amplitude is expanded in a basis of 2D conformal partial waves on the unitary…

We use the extrapolate dictionary to revisit the spectrum of operators in Celestial CFT. Under the Celestial CFT map, each state in the 4D Hilbert space should map to one in the 2D Hilbert space. This implies that, beyond the familiar…

In this paper, we first study the consequence of spacetime translations and Lorentz transformations on Celestial CFT OPEs. Working with the light transforms of the operators belonging to the modified Mellin basis, we found that the leading…

Quantitative theoretical techniques for understanding the substructure of jets at the LHC enable new insights into the dynamics of QCD, and novel approaches to search for new physics. Recently, there has been a program to reformulate jet…

We analyze the momentum-space representations of the Lorentzian correlators of scalar primary operators in an arbitrary 2D CFT. These correlators characterize the effective dynamics of open quantum systems. We derive the results from the…

We derive a nonperturbative, convergent operator product expansion (OPE) for null-integrated operators on the same null plane in a CFT. The objects appearing in the expansion are light-ray operators, whose matrix elements can be computed by…

The basic ingredient of CCFT holography is to regard four-dimensional amplitudes describing conformal wave packets as two-dimensional conformal correlation functions of the operators associated to external particles. By construction, these…

Celestial holography provides a promising avenue to studying bulk scattering in flat spacetime from the perspective of boundary celestial conformal field theory (CCFT). A key ingredient in connecting the two sides is the celestial…

In this paper, we compute the celestial amplitude arising from higher curvature corrections to Einstein gravity, incorporating phase dressing. The inclusion of such corrections leads to effective modifications of the theory's ultraviolet…

Celestial operator product expansions (OPEs) arise from the collinear limit of scattering amplitudes and play a vital role in celestial holography. In this paper, we derive the celestial OPEs of massless fields in string theory from the…

We consider the Carrollian limit of OPE blocks of scalar primaries, spin-1 currents and the stress tensor in 3-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT$_3$). We demonstrate that these OPE blocks decompose into OPE blocks of towers of…

The operator product expansion (OPE) on the celestial sphere of conformal primary gluons and gravitons is studied. Asymptotic symmetries imply recursion relations between products of operators whose conformal weights differ by…

We start by defining two-particle operators that appear in celestial CFT. We then show how to compute their OPE coefficients with the known single-particle operators at tree level from multiparticle factorization channels, focusing on the…

We study scattering amplitudes in the shadow conformal primary basis, which satisfies the same defining properties as the original conformal primary basis and has many advantages over it. The shadow celestial amplitudes exhibit locality…

We highlight and clarify the connection between several ideas and self-dual theories: (a) the operator product expansion (OPE) associativity in celestial conformal field theory (CCFT); (b) the vanishing of tree-level amplitudes; (c) the…

The linearized massless wave equation in four-dimensional asymptotically flat spacetimes is known to admit two families of solutions that transform in highest-weight representations of the Lorentz group ${\rm SL}(2, \mathbb{C})$. The two…

We analyze the convergence properties of operator product expansions (OPE) for Lorentzian CFT four-point functions of scalar operators. We give a complete classification of Lorentzian four-point configurations. All configurations in each…

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…

We derive expressions for conformal blocks involving operators with arbitrary spins in 3-dimensional CFTs. We use previous results on the action of the OPE in the embedding space to derive the conformal blocks. The blocks are given as…

Conformally soft operators and their associated soft theorems on the celestial sphere encode the low energy behaviour of bulk scattering amplitudes. They lead to an infinite dimensional symmetry algebra of the celestial CFT at tree-level.…
