The asymptotic symmetry algebra of four-dimensional Einstein gravity in the asymptotically flat context has been shown recently to be the direct sum of the Poincar\'e algebra and of an infinite-dimensional abelian algebra (with central charge) that includes the Bondi-Metzner-Sachs supertranslations. This result, obtained within the Hamiltonian formalism, yields a supertranslation invariant definition of the Lorentz generators (angular momentum and boosts). Definitions of Lorentz generators free from the ``supertranslation ambiguities'' have also been proposed recently at null infinity. We prove the equivalence of the two approaches for redefining the charges.

  1. Ti and Spi, Carrollian extended boundaries at timelike and spatial infinity

    gr-qc 2024-12 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Defines Ti and Spi extended boundaries from asymptotic metric data in Ashtekar-Romano asymptotically flat spacetimes, equipping them with Carrollian geometries that canonically match asymptotic symmetries and realize ...

  2. Dressed States Call for Logarithmic Asymptotic Symmetries

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0

    Dressed particles with soft-boson clouds are irreducible unitary representations of asymptotic symmetry groups only after adding logarithmic 'dual' symmetries, which supply the needed Heisenberg central extension.

  3. Supertranslations in the bulk of spacetime

    hep-th 2025-12 conditional novelty 5.0

    Supertranslations can be defined in the bulk as changes of null hypersurfaces, extending boundary symmetries into the interior and producing a curvature-dependent memory effect in Schwarzschild.
