Type-B formal higher spin gravity [PDF]
We propose non-linear equations for the formal Type-B Higher Spin Gravity that is dual to the free fermion or to the Gross-Neveu model, depending on the boundary conditions.

Snowmass White Paper: Higher Spin Gravity and Higher Spin Symmetry [PDF]
Higher Spin Gravity refers to extensions of gravity including at least one field of spin greater than two. These extensions are expected to provide manageable models of quantum gravity thanks to the infinite-dimensional (higher spin) gauge symmetry ...

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.

Unfolded Fierz-Pauli equations in three-dimensional asymptotically flat spacetimes
We utilise a quotient of the universal enveloping algebra of the Poincaré algebra in three spacetime dimensions, on which we formulate a covariant constancy condition.

Twisted Flato-Fronsdal theorem for higher-spin algebras
We explore the relation between the singleton and adjoint modules of higher-spin algebras via so(2, d) characters. In order to relate the tensor product of the singleton and its dual to the adjoint module, we consider a heuristic formula involving ...

Characteristic cohomology and observables in higher spin gravity
We give a complete classification of dynamical invariants in 3d and 4d Higher Spin Gravity models, with some comments on arbitrary d. These include holographic correlation functions, interaction vertices, on-shell actions, conserved currents, surface ...

On z-dominance, shift symmetry and spin locality in higher-spin theory
The paper aims at the qualitative criterion of higher-spin locality. Perturbative analysis of the Vasiliev equations gives rise to the so-called z-dominated non-localities which nevertheless disappear from interaction vertices leaving the final result ...

Off-shell higher-spin fields in AdS 4 and external currents
We construct an unfolded system for off-shell fields of arbitrary integer spin in 4d anti-de Sitter space. To this end we couple an on-shell system, encoding Fronsdal equations, to external Fronsdal currents for which we find an unfolded formulation.

Towards higher-spin AdS2/CFT1 holography
We aim at formulating a higher-spin gravity theory around AdS2 relevant for holography. As a first step, we investigate its kinematics by identifying the low-dimensional cousins of the standard higher-dimensional structures in higher-spin gravity such as
