Geometric Second Order Field Equations for General Tensor Gauge Fields

TL;DR: In this article, the second-order field equations and actions for higher spin tensor gauge fields were constructed for general higher spin boson fields, and first-order ones for fermions, which are non-local but which become local on gauge fixing or on introducing auxiliary fields.

On conformal, SL(4,R) and Sp(8,R) symmetries of massless fields

TL;DR: In this article, the sp ( 8, R ) invariant formulation of free field equations of all spins in AdS 4 available previously in terms of gauge invariant field strengths is extended to gauge potentials.

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 nontrivial order.

Strong obstruction of the Berends–Burgers–van Dam spin-3 vertex

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the BBvD obstruction cannot be cured by any means, even by introducing fields of spin that are higher (or lower) than 3.

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.

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.
