Finiteness of 3D higher spin gravity Landscape
Classical and Quantum GravityWe give Swampland constraints on the three dimensional Landscape of Anti-de Sitter higher spin gravity in the Chern-Simons formulation with connection valued in various split real forms of Lie algebras.

Chaos in three-dimensional higher spin gravity [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 We discuss SL(N, ℂ) Chern-Simons higher spin gauge theories in Euclidean AdS3. With appropriate boundary term, we derive the higher spin generalization of Schwarzian on-shell action. We investigate gravitationally dressed bi-locals, and we study the soft

A Higgs mechanism for gravity. II: Higher spin connections [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2006 peer reviewedWe continue the work of [Phys. Rev. D 72, 024001 (2005)] in which gravity is considered as the Goldstone realization of a spontaneously broken diffeomorphism group. We complete the discussion of the coset space Diff?(d,R)/SO(1,d-1) formed by

Universe, 2017 We propose a hybrid class of theories for higher spin gravity and matrix models, i.e., which handle simultaneously higher spin gravity fields and matrix models.

Boundary freedom in higher spin gravity
Physics Letters BWe investigate new boundary conditions in three-dimensional asymptotically Anti–de Sitter gravity coupled to higher-spin fields, allowing for arbitrary boundary degrees of freedom.

On the spectrum of pure higher spin gravity [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 Abstract We study the spectrum of pure massless higher spin theories in AdS3. The light spectrum is given by a tower of massless particles of spin s = 2, ⋯ , N and their multi-particles states. Their contribution to the torus partition function organises into the vacuum character of the $$ {\mathcal{W}}_N $$

Chiral higher spin gravity [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2017 We construct a candidate for the most general chiral higher spin theory with AdS$_3$ boundary conditions. In the Chern-Simons language, on the left it has the Drinfeld-Sokolov reduced form, but on the right all charges and chemical potentials are turned on. Altogether (for the spin-3 case) these are $19$ functions.

New conformal higher spin gravities in 3d [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 Abstract We propose a new class of conformal higher spin gravities in three dimensions, which extends the one by Pope and Townsend. The main new feature is that there are infinitely many examples of the new theories with a finite number of higher spin fields, much as in the massless case. The action has the Chern-Simons form for a higher spin extension

Cosmological shapes of higher-spin gravity [PDF]
Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2019 We explore non-Gaussian features of a massless spin-two field in the Vasiliev theory of higher-spin gravity. The theory contains an infinite tower of interacting gauge fields with increasing spin, and admits four-dimensional asymptotically de Sitter configurations.
