The bulk-to-boundary dictionary for 4D celestial holography is given a new entry defining 2D boundary states living on oriented circles on the celestial sphere. The states are constructed using the 2D CFT state-operator correspondence from operator insertions corresponding to either incoming or outgoing particles which cross the celestial sphere inside the circle. The BPZ construction is applied to give an inner product on such states whose associated bulk adjoints are shown to involve a shadow transform. Scattering amplitudes are then given by BPZ inner products between states living on the same circle but with opposite orientations. 2D boundary states are found to encode the same information as their 4D bulk counterparts, but organized in a radically different manner.

  1. Shadow Completion in Celestial OPEs

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Celestial OPEs require shadow-basis exchanges of the same bulk particles for consistency, with coefficients fixed by a universal shadow factor.

  2. Celestial 1-form symmetries

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    In self-dual Yang-Mills the S-algebra becomes an algebra of 1-form symmetries whose 2-form currents link integrability to the equality of Carrollian corner charges and celestial chiral algebra modes.
