Notes on Tensor Models and Tensor Field Theories

TL;DR: In this paper, a compact introduction to tensor field theories is presented, covering both some of the classical results in the field, like the details of the $1/N$ expansion, as well as recent developments.

Current Interactions and Holography from the 0-Form Sector of Nonlinear Higher-Spin Equations

TL;DR: In this paper, the form of higher-spin current interactions in the sector of Weyl 0-forms is derived from the full nonlinear higher spin equations in the Sector of 0-form and the coupling constant in front of spin-one currents built from scalars and spinors is determined explicitly.

On quantum corrections in higher-spin theory in flat space

TL;DR: In this paper, an interacting theory of an infinite tower of massless higher-spin fields in flat space with cubic vertices and their coupling constants found previously by Metsaev was considered.

Higher spins and matter interacting in dimension three

TL;DR: In this paper, a truncation of the Prokushkin-Vasiliev theory to order 2 in perturbations around AdS3 is presented, and the second-order backreaction on the physical gauge sector induced by the scalars is computed explicitly.

Deformed twistors and higher spin conformal (super-)algebras in four dimensions

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that for the quasiconformal realization of the minrep of SO(6,2) and its enveloping algebra, the Joseph ideal vanishes identically.

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.
