We continue analysis of \cite{Parsa:2018kys} and study rigidity and stability of the BMS4 algebra and its centrally extended version. We construct and classify the family of algebras which appear as deformations of BMS4 and in general find the four-parameter family of algebras W(a,b;\bar{a},\bar{b}) as a result of the stabilization analysis, where BMS4=W(-1/2,-1/2;-1/2,-1/2). We then study the W(a,b;\bar{a},\bar{b}) algebra, its maximal finite subgroups and stability for different values of the four parameters. We prove stability of the W(a,b;\bar{a},\bar{b}) family of algebras for generic values of the parameters. For special cases of (a,b)=(\bar{a},\bar{b})=(0,0) and (a,b)=(0,-1), (\bar{a},\bar{b})=(0,0) the algebra can be deformed. In particular we show that centrally extended W(0,-1;0,0) algebra can be deformed to an algebra which has three copies of Virasoro as a subalgebra. We briefly discuss these deformed algebras as asymptotic symmetry algebras and the physical meaning of the stabilization and implications of our result.

  1. Source and Response Soft Charges for Maxwell Theory on $AdS_d$

    hep-th 2019-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Maxwell theory on AdS_d has two boundary gauge symmetry sectors, source and response, whose soft charges obey an infinite-dimensional Heisenberg algebra; only the source sector survives the flat-space limit.

  2. Spacetime structure near generic horizons and soft hair

    hep-th 2019-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A family of horizon boundary conditions labeled by s yields BMS-like algebras with spin-s supertranslations, while another choice gives a non-linear Heisenberg-like algebra whose generators build the BMS-like ones.

  3. On the supersymmetric extension of asymptotic symmetries in three spacetime dimensions

    hep-th 2019-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    New infinite-dimensional superalgebras, the deformed and enlarged super-BMS3 algebras for N=1,2,4, are produced by S-expanding super-Virasoro and are related by a flat limit.
