Brans-Dicke theory contains an additional propagating mode which causes homogeneous expansion and contraction of test bodies in transverse directions. This "breathing" mode is associated with novel memory effects in addition to those of general relativity. Standard tensor mode memories are related to a symmetry principle: they are determined by the balance equations corresponding to the BMS symmetries. In this paper, we show that the leading and subleading breathing memory effects are determined by the balance equations associated with the leading and "overleading" asymptotic symmetries of a dual formulation of the scalar field in terms of a two-form gauge field. The memory effect causes a transition in the vacuum of the dual gauge theory. These results highlight the significance of dual charges and the physical role of overleading asymptotic symmetries.

  1. Scalar memory from compact binary coalescences

    gr-qc 2026-05 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    In Ricci-coupled scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity, the change in scalar charge during binary black hole mergers generates a scalar memory contribution that modifies the total memory signal on observable timescales.

  2. Superdilations at Schwarzschild null infinity

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Superdilations at Schwarzschild null infinity extend the BMS algebra, but the derived charge and redshift are controlled by free, unconstrained parameters.

  3. Gravitational memory effects in Tachyon gravity

    gr-qc 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In tachyon gravity, the scalar field adds a breathing memory mode to gravitational waves and modifies the Bondi mass loss and soft theorems.

    A lecture-note review of boundary and asymptotic symmetries that re-derives the BMS group as the asymptotic symmetry group of Minkowski spacetime alone and constructs an integral Hamiltonian generator for scalar-field...
