Unconstrained higher spins of mixed symmetry I. Bose fields

TL;DR: In this paper, the Bianchi identities of the Lagrangians were used to recover the local metric-like unconstrained Lagrangian and field equations for higher spin gauge fields of mixed symmetry in flat space.

Constructing the Cubic Interaction Vertex of Higher Spin Gauge Fields

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a method of constructing a cubic interaction in massless higher spin gauge theory both in flat and in AdS space-times of arbitrary dimensions, based on the use of oscillator formalism and on the Becchi-Rouet-Stora Tyutin (BRST) technique.

N=1 supersymmetric theory of higher spin gauge fields in AdS(5) at the cubic level

TL;DR: In this article, the authors formulate gauge invariant interactions of totally symmetric tensor and tensor-spinor higher spin gauge fields in AdS 5 that properly account for higher-spin-gravitational interactions at the action level in the first non-trivial order.

Holography of the N=1 Higher-Spin Theory on AdS4

TL;DR: In this article, the N=1 higher-spin theory on AdS4 is holographically dual to the N = 1 supersymmetric critical O(N) vector model in three dimensions.
Journal ArticleDOI

BRST approach to Lagrangian construction for fermionic higher spin fields in AdS space

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a general gauge-invariant Lagrangian construction for half-integer higher spin fields in the AdS space of any dimension, and showed that all the constraints determining an irreducible representation of the group arise as a consequence of the equations of motion and gauge transformations.

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

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.
