abstract:

Flat space admits a foliation by AdS leaves. One seeks to derive the bulk to boundary dictionary for flat space holography as the uplift of the AdS/CFT dictionary.Over the last year progress on this front has been made by isolating the contribution to bulk amplitudes associated to a single AdS leaf. This has culminated in the construction of a 2D leaf CFT, consisting of a Liouville field, a level one current algebra and a weight -3/2 fermion, which reproduces the bulk tree MHV gluon amplitude. This talk will review these developments.
