abstract
Similar to gravity, an infinite tower of symmetries generated by higher-spin charges has been identified in Yang-Mills theory by studying collinear limits or celestial operator products of gluons. This work aims to recover this loop symmetry in terms of charge aspects constructed on the gluonic Fock space. We propose an explicit construction for these higher spin charge aspects as operators which are polynomial in the gluonic annihilation and creation operators. The core of the paper consists of a proof that the charges we propose form a closed loop algebra to quadratic order. This closure involves using the commutator of the cubic order expansion of the charges with the linear (soft) charge. Quite remarkably, this shows that this infinite-dimensional symmetry constrains the non-linear structure of Yang-Mills theory. We provide a similar all spin proof in gravity for the so-called global quadratic (hard) charges which form the loop wedge subalgebra of $w_{1+\infty}$.

Infinite Symmetry Algebras in Four-Dimensional Conformal Field Theories
Universal light-ray operators from the stress tensor generate the wedge subalgebra of w_{1+∞} in generic interacting 4D CFTs, with finite one-point functions matching the full tower of soft graviton and gluon factors.

Celestial 1-form symmetries
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.
