Celestial Holography

Defined in 3 lectures. Each definition is in that lecture's terms.

Definitions are written by AI from each lecture’s transcript. The time opens the lecture where the lecturer explains it.

  • A framework for studying asymptotically flat spacetimes by mapping scattering amplitudes to correlation functions in a lower-dimensional conformal field theory.
    46:50de Sitter Quantum Cosmology: Part 1Jordan Cotler · Institute for Advanced Study
  • A framework that labels scattering amplitudes by where particles go on the celestial sphere when going out to infinity.
    17:47Scattering Amplitudes + Dualities at Infinity: Part 1Nima Arkani-Hamed · Institute for Advanced Study
  • A framework mapping scattering amplitudes in asymptotically flat bulk space-times to correlation functions of a conformal field theory defined on the celestial sphere.
    3:02Asymptotic Symmetries and Detectors: Part 1Sabrina Pasterski · Institute for Advanced Study
