Ultraviolet behaviour of higher spin gauge field propagators and one loop mass renormalization
TL;DR: In this paper, the ultraviolet singular structure of the bulk-to-bulk propagators for higher spin gauge fields in AdS 4 space is analyzed in details, and possible interactions with the Higgs scalar and the corresponding one loop mass renormalization are studied.

Dynamics of massless higher spins in the second order in curvatures
TL;DR: The consistent equations of motion of interacting massless fields of all spins s = 0, 1 2, 1, …, ∞ are constructed explicitly to the second order of the expansion in powers of the higher spin strengths.

Matter-free higher spin gravities in 3D: Partially-massless fields and general structure
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the complete theory has a form of the flatness condition for a connection of a Lie algebra, which, provided there is a nondegenerate invariant bilinear form, can be derived from the Chern-Simons action.

Boundary conditions and partition functions in higher spin AdS3/CFT2
Jan de Boer,Juan I. Jottar +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, alternative definitions of the semiclassical partition function in two-dimensional CFTs with higher spin symmetry were discussed, and the appropriate choice of boundary terms and boundary conditions in Chern-Simons theory for various types of partition functions considered.

The off-shell (3/2,2) supermultiplets revisited ☆
TL;DR: In this paper, a classification of (3/2,2) off-shell supermultiplets which are realized in terms of a real axial vector superfield with or without compensating superfields is provided.

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.
