Mapping relativistic to ultra/non-relativistic conformal symmetries in 2D and finite T T ¯ $$ \sqrt{T\overline{T}} $$ deformations
Abstract The conformal symmetry algebra in 2D (Diff(S 1)⊕Diff(S 1)) is shown to be related to its ultra/non-relativistic version (BMS3≈GCA2) through a nonlinear map of the generators, without any sort of limiting process. For a generic classical CFT2, the BMS3 generators then emerge as composites bu...
