Abstract

In this paper we relate the parity-odd part of two and three point correlation functions in theories with exactly conserved or weakly broken higher spin symmetries to the parity-even part which can be computed from free theories. We also comment on higher point functions. The well known connection of CFT correlation functions with de-Sitter amplitudes in one higher dimension implies a relation between parity-even and parity-odd amplitudes calculated using non-minimal interactions such as W3{\mathcal W}^3 and W2W~{\mathcal W}^2 {\widetilde {\mathcal W}}. In the flat-space limit this implies a relation between parity-even and parity-odd parts of flat-space scattering amplitudes.
