A Carroll Limit of AdS/CFT: A Triality with Flat Space Holography?

We construct a novel holographic duality by taking a Carrollian limit of the AdS/CFT correspondence, relating string theory in a Carroll bulk geometry to a Carroll $\mathcal{N}=4$ Super Yang-Mills theory. We further propose the existence of an underlying triality connecting Carroll string theory, relativistic string theory in flat spacetime, and Carroll gauge theory. Finally, we analyse the symmetries of the Carroll gauge theory, showing that they are non-linearly realised and do not close under ordinary Lie brackets.

Abstract

We construct a novel holographic duality by taking a Carrollian limit of the AdS/CFT correspondence, relating string theory in a Carroll bulk geometry to a Carroll $\mathcal{N}=4$ Super Yang-Mills theory. We further propose the existence of an underlying triality connecting Carroll string theory, relativistic string theory in flat spacetime, and Carroll gauge theory. Finally, we analyse the symmetries of the Carroll gauge theory, showing that they are non-linearly realised and do not close under ordinary Lie brackets.
