On (Un)Broken Higher-Spin Symmetry in Vector Models

High Energy Physics - Theory 2015-12-31 v3

Abstract

The simplest consequences of exact and broken higher-spin symmetry are studied. The one-loop anomalous dimensions of higher-spin currents are determined from the multiplet recombination in the spirit of the modern bootstrap programme: the Wilson-Fisher CFT is studied both in the epsilon-expansion and in the large-N. The bulk implications are briefly addressed: part of the higher-spin theory cubic action is reconstructed; one-loop corrections to the AdS masses of higher-spin fields are discussed.
