The generalized curvature and Christoffel symbols for a higher spin potential in AdSd+1 space

TL;DR: In this paper, the generalized curvature tensor and Christoffel symbols are determined in AdS d + 1 background by a modified ansatz of the de Wit-Freedman type by imposing gauge invariance.

Deformed Twistors and Higher Spin Conformal (Super-)Algebras in Four Dimensions

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the generators of SU(2,2) for these unitary irreducible representations can be written as bilinears of deformed twistorial oscillators which transform nonlinearly under the Lorentz group.
Journal ArticleDOI

Massless spin two field S duality

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the homological algebra tools involved in the standard de Rham theory and their subsequent generalizations relevant for the understanding of free massless higher spin gauge structure is presented.

4D higher spin black holes with nonlinear scalar fluctuations

TL;DR: In this paper, an infinite-dimensional space of solutions to Vasiliev's equations in four dimensions that are asymptotic to AdS spacetime and superpose massless scalar particle modes over static higher spin black holes is constructed.

Feynman rules for higher-spin gauge fields on AdS d+1

TL;DR: In this paper, the Feynman rules for the minimal type higher-spin theory on AdSd+1 at cubic order were determined and the quantum action at cubic-order in de Donder gauge, including ghosts, was established.

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.
