Bootstrapping inflationary correlators in Mellin space

C Sleight, M Taronna - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 - Springer
A bstract We develop a Mellin space approach to boundary correlation functions in anti-de
Sitter (AdS) and de Sitter (dS) spaces. Using the Mellin-Barnes representation of correlators …

Higher-spin gauge theories and bulk locality

C Sleight, M Taronna - Physical review letters, 2018 - APS
We present a no-go result on consistent Noether interactions among higher-spin gauge
fields on anti–de Sitter space-times. We show that there is a nonlocal obstruction at the …

Spinning AdS loop diagrams: two point functions

S Giombi, C Sleight, M Taronna - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 - Springer
A bstract We develop a systematic approach to evaluating AdS loop amplitudes with
spinning legs based on the spectral (or “split”) representation of bulk-to-bulk propagators …

Spinning Mellin bootstrap: conformal partial waves, crossing kernels and applications

C Sleight, M Taronna - Fortschritte der Physik, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
We study conformal partial waves (CPWs) in Mellin space with totally symmetric external
operators of arbitrary integer spin. The exchanged spin is arbitrary, and includes mixed …

Veneziano amplitude of Vasiliev theory

GJ Turiaci, A Zhiboedov - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 - Springer
A bstract We compute the four-point function of scalar operators in CFTs with weakly broken
higher spin symmetry at arbitrary't Hooft coupling. We use the known three-point functions in …

AdS weight shifting operators

MS Costa, T Hansen - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 - Springer
A bstract We construct a new class of differential operators that naturally act on AdS
harmonic functions. These are weight shifting operators that change the spin and dimension …

A compendium of sphere path integrals

YT Law - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 - Springer
A bstract We study the manifestly covariant and local 1-loop path integrals on S d+ 1 for
general massive, shift-symmetric and (partially) massless totally symmetric tensor fields of …

Higher spin de Sitter quasinormal modes

Z Sun - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 - Springer
A bstract We construct higher spin quasinormal modes algebraically in D-dimensional de
Sitter spacetime using the ambient space formalism. The quasinormal modes fall into two …

[HTML][HTML] Light-cone continuous-spin field in AdS space

RR Metsaev - Physics Letters B, 2019 - Elsevier
We develop further the general light-cone gauge approach in AdS space and apply it for
studying continuous-spin field. For such field, we find light-cone gauge Lagrangian and …

Cubic interaction vertices for massive/massless continuous-spin fields and arbitrary spin fields

RR Metsaev - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 - Springer
A bstract We use light-cone gauge formalism to study interacting massive and massless
continuous-spin fields and finite component arbitrary spin fields propagating in the flat …
