Cubic interaction in extended theories of massless higher-spin fields
E.S. Fradkin,Mikhail A. Vasiliev +1 more
TLDR
A cubic interaction of all massless higher-spin fields with s ⩾ 1 is constructed, based on the extended higher spin superalgebras suggested previously by one of us.About:

On the geometry of higher spin gauge fields
Dario Francia,Augusto Sagnotti +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a recent construction of the free-field equations for totally symmetric tensors and tensor-spinors that exhibits the corresponding linearized geometry is presented, and the higher-spin geometry is realized in free string field theory, and how the gauge fixing to the light cone can be effected.

Free geometric equations for higher spins
Dario Francia,Augusto Sagnotti +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown how allowing non-local terms in the field equations of symmetric tensors uncovers a neat geometry that naturally generalizes the Maxwell and Einstein cases.

String Lessons for Higher-Spin Interactions
Augusto Sagnotti,Massimo Taronna +1 more

Higher-Spin Gauge Interactions for Massive Matter Fields in 3D AdS Space-Time
TL;DR: In this article, a non-trivial HS model was proposed to describe higher-spin (HS) gauge interactions in d = 2+1 AdS space-time and the parameters of the matter fields were identified with the vev of a certain auxiliary field in the model.

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.
