Spacetime and Matter in Three-Dimensional Higher Spin Gravity
TL;DR: In this article, the physical content of three-dimensional higher spin gravity, a sophisticated toy model of high energy string theory, is investigated, starting from spin-3 gravity and working their way toward the theory of an infinite tower of higher spins coupled to matter.

On the Weyl anomaly of 4D Conformal Higher Spins: a holographic approach
TL;DR: In this article, the authors obtained the type-A and type-B Weyl anomaly coefficients for the whole family of 4D conformal higher spin fields from the one-loop effective action for massless higher spin (MHS) Fronsdal fields evaluated on a 5D bulk Poincar\'e-Einstein metric with an Einstein metric on its conformal boundary.

Some results of research carried out at the Soviet U-02 and U-25 open-cycle MHD facilities
M. V. Khabarov,Yu.M. Zinoviev +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the Fradkin-Vasiliev formalism is used for the construction of massive higher spin interactions and the effects of the presence of massless field, and hence of unbroken gauge symmetries, can be seen.

Conformal higher spin theory in extended tensorial superspace
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the formulation of free conformal higher spin theories with extended = 2, 4, 8 supersymmetry in -extended tensorial superspaces.

Conformal Higher-Spin Gravity: Linearized Spectrum = Symmetry Algebra
TL;DR: In this article, a suitable regularization adapted to their evaluation was proposed and observed that their characters are actually equal in the case of type-A and type-B (and their higher-depth generalizations) theories.

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.
