Constraining higher-spin S-matrices
There are various no-go theorems that tightly constrain the existence of local higher-spin theories with non-trivial S-matrix in flat space. Due to the existence of higher-spin Yang-Mills theory with non-trivial scattering amplitudes, it makes sense to ...

On higher spin symmetries in de Sitter QFTs [PDF]
We consider the consequences of global higher-spin symmetries in quantum field theories on a fixed de Sitter background of spacetime dimension D ≥ 3. These symmetries enhance the symmetry group associated with the isometries of the de Sitter background and thus strongly constrain the dynamics of the theory.

Classical Aspects of Higher Spin Topologically Massive Gravity
We study the classical solutions of three dimensional topologically massive gravity (TMG) and its higher spin generalization, in the first order formulation.

One-loop finiteness of Chiral Higher Spin Gravity
One of the main ideas behind Higher Spin Gravities is that the higher spin symmetry is expected to leave no room for counterterms, thereby eliminating UV divergences that make the pure gravity non-renormalizable.

Microscopic theories for cubic and tetrahedral superconductors: application to PrOs_4Sb_{12}
We examine weak-coupling theory for unconventional superconducting states of cubic or tetrahedral symmetry for arbitrary order parameters and Fermi surfaces and identify the stable states in zero applied field.

Lorentz covariant form of extended higher-spin equations
The extension of nonlinear higher-spin equations in d = 4 proposed in [30] for the construction of invariant functional is shown to respect local Lorentz symmetry.

Band-Structure Effects in the Spin Relaxation of Conduction Electrons
Spin relaxation of conduction electrons in metals is significantly influenced by the Fermi surface topology. Electrons near Brillouin zone boundaries, special symmetry points, or accidental degeneracy lines have spin flip rates much higher than an ...

Scalar electrodynamics and Higgs mechanism in the unfolded dynamics approach
We put forward a novel method of constructing unfolded formulations of field theories, which is based on initial fixation of the form of an unfolded field and subsequent looking for the corresponding unfolded equation as an identity that this field ...
