abstract
The corner symmetry algebra organises the physical charges induced by gravity on codimension-$2$ corners of a manifold. In this letter, we initiate a study of the quantum properties of this group using as a toy model the corner symmetry group of two-dimensional gravity $\mathrm{SL}\left(2,\mathbb{R}\right)\ltimes \mathbb{R}^2$. We first describe the central extensions and how the quantum corner symmetry group arises and give the Casimirs. We then make use of one particular representation to discuss the gluing of corners, achieved by identifying the maximal commuting sub-algebra. This is a concrete implementation of the gravitational constraints at the quantum level.

Quantization of Gravity on Null Hypersurfaces
An operator-algebraic quantization of the characteristic initial-value problem yields a candidate on-shell algebra for a gravitational subregion bounded by two null hypersurfaces.

From the Corner Proposal to the Area Law
For spherically symmetric gravity, the entanglement entropy of 'classical' quantum-corner coherent states scales with horizon area — but the Bekenstein–Hawking coefficient 1/4 is fixed by hand-picked central charges, ...

Entanglement Entropy of Quantum Corners
For a two-dimensional corner symmetry algebra, coherent corner states give an entanglement entropy that scales with the area when mapped to near-extremal Reissner-Nordström black holes.

Field-dependent diffeomorphisms and the transformation of surface charges between gauges
The Weyl charge in (A)dS3 gravity is kinematical: it can be toggled on or off by a field-dependent diffeomorphism between Bondi-Sachs and Fefferman-Graham gauges.

Orbit method for Quantum Corner Symmetries
Coadjoint orbits of the quantum corner symmetry group factorize into SL(2,R) and Heisenberg orbits, and their geometric quantization reproduces the known unitary representations, apart from the complementary series an...
