abstract
We propose a holographic duality for a four dimensional WZW model with target manifold $\mathrm{SO}(8)$, coupled to scalar-flat K\"ahler gravity on an asymptotically flat, four dimensional background known as the Burns metric. The holographic dual is a two dimensional chiral algebra built out of gauged beta-gamma systems with $\mathrm{SO}(8)$ flavor. We test the duality by matching two-point correlators of soft gluon currents with two-point gluon amplitudes, and their leading OPE coefficients with collinear limits of three-point gluon amplitudes.

Exact tree-level MHV graviton scattering amplitudes at arbitrary multiplicity are obtained on self-dual Taub-NUT backgrounds using twistor theory, including spin via Newman-Janis shift, with undeformed celestial symmetries.
Photon emission amplitudes in totally depleting flying focus beams equal a Gaussian average over momentum variables of the corresponding plane-wave amplitudes, obtained via conformal transformations of Volkov solutions.
Term-by-term celestial transforms of perturbative amplitudes disagree with the full S-matrix transform in the Sinh-Gordon model at leading order.
Non-commutative 5d Chern-Simons theory on the spinor bundle compactifies to the KP equation, with vanishing tree amplitudes and W_{1+∞} defect algebra reducing to w_{1+∞} in the dispersionless limit.
Derives Carrollian Maxwell theories (magnetic and electric) plus new scalar couplings through deformed light-cone null reduction while keeping first-class Gauss constraint and gauge invariance.
In planar N=4 SYM the IR-finite hard amplitude satisfies an uncorrected tree-level soft theorem and represents the undeformed tree-level S-algebra of soft gluons.
Reducing 4D massless and massive scalar actions in flat and Klein space to 3D theories on hyperbolic slices produces continuous spectra linked by boundary terms, with boundary modes matching light-cone or null-infinity limits.
Two open-string descriptions of branes on the resolved conifold are equivalent; integrating out one stack yields an effective potential that reproduces the backreaction and matches giant-graviton actions on the deformed conifold.
A path integral with asymptotic boundary conditions produces the gravitational S-matrix and derives soft graviton theorems from extended BMS symmetry Ward identities.
A conformal map identifies the flat-space soft gluon S-algebra with light-ray operators built from CFT3 currents and their descendants in AdS4.
