Bilinear Fronsdal currents in the AdS4 higher-spin theory
We analyse higher-spin theory with general coupling constant η at the second order, focusing on the gauge non-invariant vertices Υ(ω, ω), Υ(Ω, ω, C) and Υ(ω, C), that are shown to generate nontrivial currents in the Fronsdal equations.

Towards non-AdS holography in 3-dimensional higher spin gravity
We take the first steps towards non-AdS holography in higher spin gravity. Namely, we propose a variational principle for generic 3-dimensional higher spin gravity that accommodates asymptotic backgrounds beyond AdS, like asymptotically Schrodinger ...

This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.

Waveguide Photoactuators: Materials, Fabrication, and Applications
Waveguide photoactuators convert guided light into mechanical motion. Their tethered‐flexible design enables minimally invasive surgery and confined‐space robotics. This review aims to guide materials selection, device design, and system integration, accelerating the transition of waveguide photoactuators from laboratory prototypes to versatile ...

Massive spin 3 and Metric-Affine Gravity
Symmetric Metric-Affine Gravity is a theory of gravity with an independent non-metric connection, and zero torsion. It can be thought of as ordinary metric gravity coupled to a rank-3 tensor Q, symmetric in one pair of indices.

Limiting shifted homotopy in higher-spin theory and spin-locality
Higher-spin vertices containing up to quintic interactions at the LagTangian level are explicitly calculated in the one-form sector of the non-linear unfolded higher-spin equations using a 𝛽 →-∞-shifted contracting homotopy introduced in the paper.

On amplitudes in chiral higher spin gravity
A bstract We extract cubic interactions from the covariant equations of motion of Chiral Higher Spin Gravity and compute the corresponding amplitudes. These amplitudes are found to agree with earlier results obtained in the light-cone gauge.

A Soft Robotic Fish With a Dielectric Elastomer Actuator Body and Negative Stiffness Spine
This work introduces a bio‐mimetic soft robotic fish driven by fiber‐reinforced dielectric elastomer actuators integrated as its body. By prestretching this active skin against a flexible spine, a negative stiffness system is created, enabling large‐amplitude bending.

Partially-massless higher spin algebras in four dimensions
We propose a realisation of partially-massless higher spin algebras in four dimensions in terms of bosonic and fermionic oscillators, using Howe duality between sp(4, ℝ) ≅ so(2, 3) and osp(1|2(ℓ − 1), ℝ).
