Tensionless strings and Galilean Conformal Algebra

We discuss an intriguing link between the symmetries of the tensionless limit of closed string theory and the 2-dimensional Galilean Conformal Algebra (2d GCA). 2d GCA has been studied in the context of the non-relativistic limit of AdS/CFT and more recently in flat-space holography as the proposed...
