Soft gravitons in three dimensions
read the original abstract
We consider quantum gravity with zero cosmological constant in three dimensions. First, we show that pure quantum gravity can be written as a magnetic Carrollian theory living on null infinity, described by Schwarzian-like degrees of freedom. Next, we couple quantum gravity to massless matter. Transition amplitudes exhibit several features that resemble soft graviton physics in four dimensions, despite the absence of a propagating graviton. As in four dimensions, we find three equivalent results: a soft graviton theorem, an infinite-dimensional BMS asymptotic symmetry, and a gravitational memory effect. We also resolve some extant puzzles concerning the partition function and Hilbert space of pure 3d gravity with zero cosmological constant.

Carrollian quantum states and flat space holography
Carrollian QFTs from scalar limits admit regular invariant vacua and KMS states only in the massive electric sector; a factorizing quasifree state is constructed for flat-space holography isolating nonseparable zero modes.
