On special quartic interaction of higher spin gauge fields with scalars and gauge symmetry commutator in the linear approximation

TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of constructing interacting Lagrangians for higher spin field in physical gauge was solved using the full power of Noether's procedure, and the linear on-field gauge transformation was obtained and the corresponding commutator of transformation was analyzed.

On presymplectic structures for massless higher-spin fields

TL;DR: In this paper, a natural presymplectic structure for non-Lagrangian equations of motion governing the dynamics of free higher-spin fields in four-dimensional anti-de Sitter space is proposed.

Probing emergent geometry through phase transitions in free vector and matrix models

TL;DR: In this paper, boundary correlation functions for higher spin gravity duals of O(N or U(N) symmetric field theories have been studied and shown to show a significant departure from thermal AdS space and the emergence of localized black hole like objects in the bulk.

Generalized Toda field theories

TL;DR: In this article, a unified approach to Toda field theories is introduced, which allows us to formulate the classes of A n, B n and C n models as unique models involving an arbitrary continuous parameter v.

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.
