On the non-local obstruction to interacting higher spins in flat space

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017
Owing to a renewed interest in flat space higher spin gauge theories, in this note we provide further details and clarifications on the results presented in arXiv:1107.5843 and arXiv: 1209.5755, which investigated their locality properties. Focusing, for

On stringy AdS_5 x S^5 and higher spin holography

, 2003
We derive the spectrum of Kaluza-Klein descendants of string excitations on AdS_5 x S^5. String states are organized in long multiplets of the AdS supergroup SU(2,2|4,R) with a rich pattern of shortenings at the higher spin enhancement point \lambda=0 ...

Constraining conformal field theories with a slightly broken higher spin symmetry

, 2012
We consider three dimensional conformal field theories that have a higher spin symmetry that is slightly broken. The theories have a large N limit, in the sense that the operators separate into single trace and multitrace and obey the usual large N ...

Supersymmetric higher-spin gauge theories in any d and their coupling constants within BRST formalism

Journal of High Energy Physics
Nonlinear field equations for the supersymmetric higher-spin gauge theory describing totally symmetric bosonic and fermionic massless fields along with hook-type bosonic fields of all spins in any space-time dimension are presented.

Strong homotopy algebras for chiral higher spin gravity via Stokes theorem

Journal of High Energy Physics
Chiral higher spin gravity is defined in terms of a strong homotopy algebra of pre-Calabi-Yau type (noncommutative Poisson structure). All structure maps are given by the integrals over the configuration space of concave polygons and the first two maps ...

A note on rectangular partially massless fields

, 2018
We study a class of non-unitary so(2,d) representations (for even values of d), describing mixed-symmetry partially massless fields which constitute natural candidates for defining higher-spin singletons of higher order. It is shown that this class of so(

Higher-Spin Symmetries and Deformed Schrödinger Algebra in Conformal Mechanics

Advances in Mathematical Physics, 2018
The dynamical symmetries of 1+1-dimensional Matrix Partial Differential Equations with a Calogero potential (with/without the presence of an extra oscillatorial de Alfaro-Fubini-Furlan, DFF, term) are investigated. The first-order invariant differential operators induce several invariant algebras and superalgebras.

Partially-massless higher spin algebras in four dimensions

Journal of High Energy Physics
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).

Higher-Spin Gauge Theories and Bulk Locality

, 2018
We present a no-go result on consistent Noether interactions among higher-spin gauge fields on anti-de Sitter space-times. We show that there is a non-local obstruction at the classical level to consistent interacting field theory descriptions of ...

Linearized Coxeter higher-spin theories

Journal of High Energy Physics
A class of higher-spin gauge theories on AdS 4 associated with various Coxeter groups C $$ \mathcal{C} $$ is analyzed at the linear order. For a general C $$ \mathcal{C} $$ , a solution corresponding to the AdS 4 space and the form of the free unfolded ...
