Recent investigations into asymptotic symmetries of gauge theory and gravity have illuminated connections between gauge field zero-mode sectors, the corresponding soft factors, and their classically observable counterparts -- so called "memories." Here we complete this triad for the case of large U(1) gauge symmetries at null infinity.

  1. Memory effect from the scattering of Taub-NUT black holes

    hep-th 2026-03 conditional novelty 7.0

    Soft theorems yield a gauge-invariant nutty soft factor and the associated memory tensor for Kerr-Taub-NUT scattering, with magnetic components and directional divergences absent in electromagnetism.

  2. The asymptotic charges of Curtright dual graviton and Curtright extensions of BMS algebra

    hep-th 2026-02 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    The asymptotic charges of the Curtright dual graviton in D=5 split into scalar, vector, and TT sectors that close into an abelian extension of a BMS-like algebra when the vector parameter is restricted to o(4).

  3. Finite-time memory detectors and fully constraining Faddeev-Kulish dressings in QED and gravity

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Symmetry uniquely fixes finite-time Faddeev-Kulish dressings in QED and gravity so they reproduce classical memory, allowing recovery of first-order and higher-order gravitational memory in perturbative calculations.

  4. The Schrodinger Equation as a Gauge Theory

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    The Schrödinger equation is locally equivalent to a gauge theory with one-form fields in 2+1D and two-form fields in 3+1D, with BF and Chern-Simons terms organizing electromagnetic couplings, anyons, Berry phases, and...

  5. Asymptotic charges as detectors and the memory effect in massive QED and perturbative quantum gravity

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Faddeev-Kulish dressings correctly encode the memory effect in in and out Fock spaces for massive QED and perturbative quantum gravity, with physical contributions to memory eigenvalues from the dressings.

  6. Toward claiming a detection of gravitational memory

    gr-qc 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A framework using scale separation in the Isaacson description defines observable gravitational memory rise for compact binary coalescences, providing a basis for hypothesis testing in LISA data.

  7. Sound as a gauge theory and its infrared triangle

    hep-th 2025-12 conditional novelty 6.0

    Linear acoustic perturbations admit a memory effect that, in a dual Kalb-Ramond formulation, is encoded by large gauge transformations plus a monopole piece.

  8. Testing Electromagnetic Memory via Acceleration-Induced Phase Imprints in Superconductors

    hep-ph 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 6.0

  9. The Schrodinger Equation as a Gauge Theory

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Schrödinger equation is locally equivalent to a non-relativistic gauge theory via one-form or two-form gauge fields on the probability current, with global topology from phase winding quantization.

  10. Detector Resolution and Observable Infrared Memory in QED

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    Detector resolution ω_max is interpreted as a coarse-graining scale that renders infrared memory in QED resolution-dependent via tracing over unobserved soft photons.
