Explore the derivation of soft photon, gluon, and graviton theorems in Anti-de Sitter and de Sitter spacetimes through the lens of conformal invariance in this 28-minute conference talk. Learn how conformal symmetry provides a powerful framework for understanding soft theorems in curved spacetimes, extending beyond the well-established flat spacetime results. Discover the mathematical techniques used to derive these fundamental results in quantum field theory and gravity, examining how the curvature of (A)dS backgrounds affects the behavior of soft particles. Gain insights into the intersection of quantum chromodynamics and gravitational physics through this advanced theoretical physics presentation delivered at the QCD meets Gravity XI Conference by Jiajie Mei from the University of Amsterdam.
