Effective action in a higher-spin background
TL;DR: In this paper, a free massless scalar field coupled to an infinite tower of background higher-spin gauge fields via minimal coupling to the traceless conserved currents is considered.

Notes on Strings and Higher Spins
TL;DR: In this paper, a review is devoted to the intriguing and still largely unexplored links between string theory and higher spins, the types of excitations that lie behind their most cherished properties.

Entanglement entropy and higher spin holography in AdS3
Jan de Boer,Juan I. Jottar +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a functional based on the Wilson lines in the bulk Chern-Simons theory that captures the entanglement entropy in the CFTs dual to standard AdS3 gravity, corresponding to SL(2;R)�SL(2,R) gauge group, and admits an immediate generalization to the higher spin case.

A generating function for the cubic interactions of higher spin fields
TL;DR: An off-shell generating function for all cubic interactions of higher spin gauge fields constructed in Manvelyan et al. as discussed by the authors is a generalization of the Sagnotti and Taronna [2], and turns out to have a remarkable structure.

Scalar fields and three-point functions in D = 3 higher spin gravity
TL;DR: In this article, boundary three-point functions involving two scalars and a gauge field of arbitrary spin in the AdS vacuum of Vasiliev's higher spin gravity, for any deformation parameter λ, were derived.

Anomaly cancellations in supersymmetric D=10 gauge theory and superstring theory
TL;DR: In this article, a superstring theory for E 8 × 8 × E 8 has been constructed, based on SO(32) and the remaining pieces of all the anomalies cancel if the gauge group is SO (32) or E 8×E 8.

Vacuum configurations for superstrings
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied candidate vacuum configurations in ten-dimensional O(32) and E 8 × E 8 supergravity and superstring theory that have unbroken N = 1 supersymmetry in four dimensions.

Unified geometric theory of gravity and supergravity
S. W. MacDowell,F. Mansouri +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a unified geometric formulation of gravitation and supergravity is presented, which is constructed out of the components of the curvature tensor for bundle spaces with four-dimensional Lorentz base manifold and structure groups Sp(4) for gravity and OSp(1, 4) for supergravity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Particles, Sources and Fields
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a theory intermediate in position between operator field theory and S-matrix theory, which rejects the dogmas of each and gains thereby a calculational ease and intuitiveness that make it a worthy contender to displace the earlier formulations.

On the Theoretical Problems in Constructing Interactions Involving Higher Spin Massless Particles
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that a gauge theory of self-interacting massless spin-3 particles which is analogous to Yang-Mills or the theory of gravity does not exist.
