String Lessons for Higher-Spin Interactions

TL;DR: In this paper, a simplified form for the three-point (and four-point) amplitudes of the symmetric tensors belonging to the first Regge trajectory of the open bosonic string is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Notes on Strings and Higher Spins

TL;DR: In this paper, a review is devoted to the intriguing and still largely unexplored links between string theory and higher spins, the types of excitations that lie behind their most cherished properties.

Gauge invariant Lagrangian formulation of higher spin massive bosonic field theory in AdS space

TL;DR: In this article, the BRST approach to Lagrangian construction for the massive integer higher spin fields in an arbitrary dimensional AdS space is developed and the theory is formulated in terms of auxiliary Fock space.
Journal ArticleDOI

Higher-spin interactions: four-point functions and beyond

TL;DR: In this article, an infinite class of four-point functions for massless higher-spin fields in flat space that are consistent with the gauge symmetry were constructed. But these results are not generalizable to other fields, such as fermions and mixed-symmetry fields.

Unconstrained higher spins of mixed symmetry I. Bose fields

TL;DR: In this paper, the Bianchi identities of the Lagrangians were used to recover the local metric-like unconstrained Lagrangian and field equations for higher spin gauge fields of mixed symmetry in flat space.

Non-commutative geometry and string field theory

TL;DR: In this paper, an attempt is made to interpret the interactions of bosonic open strings as defining a non-cummulative, associative algebra, and to formulate the classical non-linear field theory of such strings in the language of non-commulative geometry.

Unconstrained N=2 matter, Yang-Mills and supergravity theories in harmonic superspace

TL;DR: In this article, a new approach to N = 2 supersymmetry based on the concept of harmonic superspace is proposed and is used to give an unconstrained superfield geometric description of N=2 super Yang-Mills and supergravity theories as well as of matter N =2 hypermultiplets.

Quantum dynamics of a massless relativistic string

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed the classical and quantum mechanics of a massless relativistic string, the light string, which is characterized by an action proportional to the area of the world sheet swept out by the string in space time.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interacting field theory of open superstrings

TL;DR: In this paper, a gauge invariant nonlinear classical field theory of open superstrings is explored and the standard structure in the Ramond sector is described, answering questions that have been raised in recent literature.

Local Supersymmetry for Spinning Particles

TL;DR: In this paper, first and second order forms of the covariant action for a spinning particle are exhibited, which consistently incorporates the necessary constraints and is invariant under both local supersymmetry and general time parameter transformations, and provides a simple one-dimensional model for the interaction between matter and supergravity.
