TLDR
In this paper, the authors considered the massive integer higher spin fields coupled to an external constant electromagnetic field in flat space of arbitrary dimension and found a gauge invariant quartic interaction vertex which is quadratic in a dynamical higher spin field and quadratically in the external field.Abstract:
We consider the massive integer higher spin fields coupled to an external constant electromagnetic field in flat space of arbitrary dimension and find a gauge invariant quartic interaction vertex which is quadratic in a dynamical higher spin field and quadratic in the external field. The construction of the vertex is based on the BRST approach to higher spin field theory where no off-shell constraints on the fields and on the gauge parameters are imposed from the very beginning (unconstrained formulation).read more

Nonlinear higher spin theories in various dimensions
TL;DR: In this article, an introduction to the nonlinear equations for completely symmetric bosonic higher spin gauge fields in anti de Sitter space of any dimension is provided, and some related issues such as the MacDowell-Mansouri-Stelle-West formulation of gravity, unfolded formulation of dynamical systems in terms of free differential algebras and Young tableaux symmetry properties in terms with Howe dual algesbras are discussed.
