abstract

We derive a closed-form expression of the orbit of Minkowski spacetime under arbitrary Diff$(S^2)$ super-Lorentz transformations and supertranslations. Such vacua are labelled by the superboost, superrotation and supertranslation fields. Impulsive transitions among vacua are related to the refraction memory effect and the displacement memory effect. A phase space is defined whose asymptotic symmetry group consists of arbitrary Diff$(S^2)$ super-Lorentz transformations and supertranslations. It requires a renormalization of the symplectic structure. We show that our final surface charge expressions are consistent with the leading and subleading soft graviton theorems. We contrast the leading BMS triangle structure to the mixed overleading/subleading BMS square structure.

    Finite-distance null screens carry a Carrollian memory whose leading tracefree large-radius part reproduces the standard Bondi displacement memory in Robinson–Trautman spacetimes.

  4. Twisting asymptotically-flat spacetimes

    gr-qc 2025-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Twisting asymptotically-flat spacetimes are brought into a generalized Bondi gauge with finite radial expansion, producing new flux-balance laws, Carroll-boost symmetries, and finite supertranslated Kerr–Taub–NUT metrics.

  6. Gauge Symmetries, Exact Symmetries and Conserved Charges in Minimal Massive Gravity

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Minimal Massive Gravity has three gauge symmetries, and a newly constructed transformation generates exact symmetries and a conserved charge in a restricted parameter limit.

  7. Field-dependent diffeomorphisms and the transformation of surface charges between gauges

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The Weyl charge in (A)dS3 gravity is kinematical: it can be toggled on or off by a field-dependent diffeomorphism between Bondi-Sachs and Fefferman-Graham gauges.

  8. Gravitational memory and Ward identities in the local detector frame

    gr-qc 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Gravitational memory in TT gauge is encoded in large residual diffeomorphisms that equal BMS transformations, and their Ward identities yield soft graviton theorems and flat-space consistency relations.

  9. Gravitational memory and soft theorems: The local perspective

    gr-qc 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Gravitational memory is shown to be a large residual coordinate transformation in TT gauge, yielding new flat-space soft theorems for equal-time correlators that mirror inflationary consistency relations.

  10. Quasi-local conserved charges in General Relativity

    gr-qc 2019-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The paper constructs a general prescription for quasi-local conserved charges in GR and proposes the zero-mode BMS charge in Newman-Unti gauge as a quasi-local energy candidate.

  11. Covariant variation and its applications

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A metric-compatible covariant variation of tensors has a non-closure anomaly that reproduces electromagnetic helicity flux under superrotations and generalizes to higher-spin and p-form radiative data.

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Kerr soft dressing exponentiates into a parity-alternating tower of frame shifts whose chiral-projected composition law is the w1+∞ bracket, solved in closed form for aligned spin.

  13. Supertranslations in the bulk of spacetime

    hep-th 2025-11 conditional novelty 3.0 of 10

    Massless scattering amplitudes, including gravitons, can be recast as correlators of a carrollian conformal field theory on null infinity, but the non-perturbative bootstrap program remains incomplete.
