We consider Carrollian conformal field theories in two dimensions and construct the boundary Carrollian conformal algebra (BCCA), opening up innumerable possibilities for further studies, given the growing relevance of Carrollian symmetries. We prove that the BCCA emerges by contracting a single copy of the Virasoro algebra. As an application, we construct, for the first time, open null strings and show that, for Dirichlet boundary conditions, we recover the BCCA as the algebra of constraints. We finally reconstruct our string results by taking the null limit of tensile open strings.

  1. Missing Descendants in the Carrollian Conformal Family

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Including the missing K0 descendant chain completes Carrollian conformal representations and produces C2>0 sectors and two-point correlators fixed only up to functions of Carrollian invariants.

  2. On $\sqrt{T\overline{T}}$ deformed pathways: CFT to CCFT

    hep-th 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    The marginal √(T T-bar) deformation of 2D massless scalars provides a dynamical map from relativistic CFT to Carrollian CCFT symmetries, recovering the electric Carroll theory and a novel magnetic counterpart in the e...

  3. Towards a Holographic dual of Carrollian BCFT

    hep-th 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    An end-of-the-world brane in 3d flat spacetime is shown to reduce spacetime symmetries to the boundary Carrollian conformal algebra, suggesting a flat-space analogue of AdS3/BCFT2 holography.

  4. An Inconsistency in the Null Strings Literature: The Tale of an Overlooked Symmetry

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    The paper claims a new local symmetry of null strings forces a third constraint, giving D−3 physical degrees of freedom.

  5. Carrollian superstring in the flipped vacuum

    hep-th 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The Carrollian superstring in the flipped vacuum has a non-truncated spectrum with nonzero winding in the infinite-radius limit, and its three-point graviton amplitudes match tensile superstring results up to location...
