abstract
We provide a theory defined purely on null infinity that describes Yang-Mills in the Minkowski space bulk. The dynamical field of our model is the characteristic data of the bulk gauge field, and the action combines an electric branch Carrollian kinetic term with non-local interactions of MHV type that link different points on the celestial sphere. We explicitly show how this theory recovers all MHV and NMHV tree amplitudes in Yang-Mills, and outline how arbitrary tree amplitudes may be obtained from its Feynman diagram expansion. The detailed expression we find for the NMHV amplitude appears to be new.

Bulk-to-boundary correlators for spin-s operators in Poincaré-invariant massless theories are linear superpositions of ISO(2)-fixed tensor structures mapped to non-crossing double-line diagrams that are tensor products of loop diagrams, extrapolating to type Ib multiplets in CCFT generated by Wigner
Late-time Bondi mass aspect at future null infinity acts as a detector for massive radiation, with its in-in correlations relating to weighted sums of scattering cross sections.
