Towards a Holographic dual of Carrollian BCFT

In this work we aim to lay the foundation of flat version of AdS$_3$/BCFT$_2$ correspondence through Carrollian framework. We begin with discussing the recently discovered Boundary Carrollian Conformal Algebra (BCCA), the symmetry algebra of Carrollian BCFT. We identify this algebra at the null infinity of flat spacetime with appropriate choice of the end-of-the-world (EOW) brane. The properties of this EOW brane have been analysed both intrinsically and by taking flat limit from its AdS counterpart. We also find that the global as well as asymptotic symmetries of flat spacetime restricted by this EOW brane coincide exactly with the symmetries of BCCA.

Boundary Carroll CFTs: SUSY and Superstrings

We consider two dimensional superconformal Carrollian theories with boundaries and construct two variants of the Boundary Superconformal Carrollian Algebra (BSCCA), viz. the Homogeneous and the Inhomogeneous, by making appropriate identification of the parent superconformal Carrollian algebras. These new algebras are then recovered by appropriate limits of a single copy of Super Virasoro algebra. We then focus on the theory of null tensionless superstrings and construct, for the first time, an open null superstring. The Homogeneous version of the BSCCA is realised as worldsheet symmetries on this open null superstring.

Boundary Carrollian CFTs and Open Null Strings

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.
