We construct gauge theory of interacting symmetric traceless tensors of all ranks s= 0, 1, 2,
3,… which generalizes Weyl-invariant dilaton gravity to the higher spin case, in any …

A bstract Powerful general arguments allow only a few families of long-range interactions,
exemplified by gauge field theories of electromagnetism and gravity. However, all of these …

Conformal higher spin (HS) gravity is a HS extension of Weyl gravity and is a family of local
HS theories, which was put forward by Segal and Tseytlin. We propose a manifestly …

A bstract We study propagation of a point particle in a massless higher-spin background
employing the light-cone gauge approach. We find the point particle action and the …

A bstract We develop a manifestly conformal approach to describe linearised (super)
conformal higher-spin gauge theories in arbitrary conformally flat backgrounds in three and …

Abstract We formulate Fradkin-Vasiliev type theory of massless higher spin fields in AdS 5.
The corresponding action functional describes cubic order approximation to gravitational …

We address the question of how to represent an interacting action for a tower of conformal
higher spin fields in a form covariant with respect to a background metric. We use the …

We propose a construction for nonlinear off-shell gauge field theories based on a
constrained system quantized in the sense of deformation quantization. The key idea is to …

Conformal higher spin (CHS) fields, yet being non unitary, provide a remarkable example of
a consistent interacting higher spin theory in flat space background, that is local to all orders …

The unconstrained frame-like formulation of an infinite tower of completely symmetric tensor
gauge fields is reviewed and examined in the limit where the cosmological constant goes to …
