Abstract

In this paper we study the tree-level OPE between two positive helicity outgoing gluons in the celestial CFT for the Yang-Mills theory chirally coupled to a massive scalar background. This theory breaks the translation as well as scale invariance. We compute the subleading terms in the OPE expansion and show that they are same as the subleading terms of the OPE expansions in the MHV sector. As a result the amplitudes of this theory also satisfy the set of differential equations obtained previously for MHV amplitudes in pure YM theory. This is not surprising because the symmetries coming from the leading and subleading soft gluon theorems do not change in the presence of a massive scalar background. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
