A generating formulation for free higher spin massless fields
نویسنده
چکیده
An action describing the dynamics of an infinite collection of massless integer spin fields with spin s = 0, 1, 2, 3, ..., ∞ corresponding to totally symmetric Young tableaux representations of Poincare and anti-de Sitter groups is constructed, in any dimension d, in terms of two functions on a 2d-dimensional manifold. The action is represented by an integral localized on a 2d − 1-dimensional hypersurface. ————————————– (1) on leave of absence from

Geometric Formulation for Partially Massless Fields
The manifestly gauge invariant formulation for free symmetric higher-spin partially massless fields in (A)dSd is given in terms of gauge connections and linearized curvatures that take values in the irreducible representations of (o(d−1, 2)) o(d, 1) described by two-row Young tableaux, in which the lengths of the first and second row are, respectively, associated with the spin and depth of part...

The dynamics of totally symmetric free massless higher spin fields in AdS d is reformulated in terms of the compensator formalism for AdS gravity. The AdS 5 higher spin algebra is identified with the star product algebra with the su(2, 2) vector (i.e., o(4, 2) spinor) generating elements. Cubic interactions of the totally symmetric bosonic higher spin gauge fields in AdS 5 , including the inter...

BTZ black hole is interpreted as exact solution of 3d higher spin gauge theory. Solutions for free massless fields in BTZ black hole background are constructed with the help of the star-product algebra formalism underlying the formulation of 3d higher spin theory. It is shown that a part of higher spin symmetries remains unbroken for special values of the BTZ parameters.
