Constraining conformal field theories with a higher spin symmetry [PDF]
We study the constraints imposed by the existence of a single higher spin conserved current on a three-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT). A single higher spin conserved current implies the existence of an infinite number of higher spin conserved ...

Cubic interactions of Maxwell-like higher spins
We study the cubic vertices for Maxwell-like higher-spins in flat and (A)dS background spaces of any dimension. Reducibility of their free spectra implies that a single cubic vertex involving any three fields subsumes a number of couplings among ...

COMMENTS ON HIGHER-SPIN SYMMETRIES [PDF]
The unconstrained frame-like formulation of an infinite tower of completely symmetric tensor gauge fields is reviewed and examined in the limit where the cosmological constant goes to zero. By partially fixing the gauge and solving the torsion constraints, the form of the gauge transformations in the unconstrained metric-like formulation are obtained ...

On BF-type higher-spin actions in two dimensions
We propose a non-abelian higher-spin theory in two dimensions for an infinite multiplet of massive scalar fields and infinitely many topological higher-spin gauge fields together with their dilaton-like partners.

Higher spins and Yangian symmetries
The relation between the bosonic higher spin ${\cal W}_\infty[ ]$ algebra, the affine Yangian of $\mathfrak{gl}_{1}$, and the SH$^c$ algebra is established in detail. For generic $ $ we find explicit expressions for the low-lying ${\cal W}_\infty[ ]$ modes in terms of the affine Yangian generators, and deduce from this the precise identification ...

Holographic chiral induced W-gravities [PDF]
We study boundary conditions for 3-dimensional higher spin gravity that admit asymptotic symmetry algebras expected of 2-dimensional induced higher spin theories in the light cone gauge.

On (Un)Broken Higher-Spin Symmetry in Vector Models [PDF]
The simplest consequences of exact and broken higher-spin symmetry are studied. The one-loop anomalous dimensions of higher-spin currents are determined from the multiplet recombination in the spirit of the modern bootstrap programme: the Wilson-Fisher ...

On Correlation Functions as Higher-Spin Invariants [PDF]
(Chern–Simons) vector models exhibit an infinite-dimensional symmetry, the slightly-broken higher-spin symmetry with the unbroken higher-spin symmetry being the first approximation. In this note, we compute the n-point correlation functions of the higher-

NON-ABELIAN BOSONIZATION AND HIGHER SPIN SYMMETRIES [PDF]
The higher spin properties of non-Abelian bosonization in the classical theory are investigated. Both the symmetry transformation algebra and the classical current algebra for the non-Abelian free-fermionic model are linear Gel’fand–Dickey type algebras. However, for the corresponding WZNW model these algebras are different.

Exact higher-spin symmetry in CFT: free fermion correlators from Vasiliev Theory [PDF]
N-point correlation functions of conserved currents and weight-two scalar operators of the three-dimensional free fermion vector model are found as invariants of the higher-spin symmetry in four-dimensional AdS.
