The possibility of charge/color flux through I + suggests the symmetry group is infinite-dimensional. It is conjectured that the symmetries include a G Kac-Moody symmetry whose generators are ”large” gauge transformations which approach locally holomorphic functions on the conformal two-sphere at I + and are invariant under null translations. The Kac-Moody currents are constructed from the gauge field at the future boundary of I +. The current Ward identities include Weinberg’s soft photon theorem and its colored extension.en-USAsymptotic symmetries of Yang-Mills theoryJournal Article2016-11-0810.1007/JHEP07(2014)151
