Celestial Holography from Euclidean AdS space
Abstract
We will explore the connection between Celestial and Euclidean Anti-de Sitter (EAdS) holography in the massive scalar case. Specifically, exploiting the so-called hyperbolic foliation of Minkowski space-time, we will show that each contribution to massive Celestial correlators can be reformulated as a linear combination of contributions to corresponding massive Witten correlators in EAdS. This result will be demonstrated explicitly both for contact diagrams and for the four-point particle exchange diagram, and it extends to all orders in perturbation theory by leveraging the bootstrapping properties of the Celestial CFT (CCFT). Within this framework, the Kantorovic-Lebedev transform plays a central role. This transform will allow us to make broader considerations regarding non-perturbative properties of a CCFT.
If you haven't been watching our mathematicians playing with their toys on social media, you can now watch the first compilation via YouTube. The films seemed to have worked well, not least because they strike a balance between entertainment and education which can sound patronising, but which is where social media can work.
