We study the chiral higher-spin symmetry algebras $\mathfrak{ca}$ of various twistorial higher-spin theories. These symmetries play the roles of asymptotic symmetries on the celestial twistor sphere, which constrain the observables of…

We review recent progress in the construction of black holes in three dimensional higher spin gravity theories. Starting from spin-3 gravity and working our way toward the theory of an infinite tower of higher spins coupled to matter, we…

We note that Witten's proposed duality between extremal c=24k CFTs and three-dimensional anti-de Sitter gravity may possibly be extended to central charges that are multiples of 8, for which extremal self-dual CFTs are known to exist up to…

It was recently proposed that a large N limit of a family of minimal model CFTs is dual to a certain higher spin gravity theory in AdS_3, where the 't Hooft coupling constant of the CFT is related to a deformation parameter of the higher…

We study Higher-Spin Gravity in 4-dimensional (Anti-)de Sitter space, at leading order in the interactions (cubic vertices), in the AdS lightcone formalism developed by Metsaev. Using the vertices' chiral structure, we extend the formalism…

We obtain a non-relativistic chiral massive higher-spin gravity in a deformed $AdS_3$ spacetime by applying a Lifshitz deformation and subsequent null reduction to chiral massless higher-spin gravity in $AdS_4$. Intriguingly, the vertices…

Massive higher spin fields on de Sitter space exhibit enhanced gauge symmetries at special values of the mass. These fields are known as "partially massless." We study the structure of the charges and Gauss laws which characterize sources…

We construct consistent bosonic higher-spin gauge theories in odd dimensions D>3 based on Chern-Simons forms. The gauge groups are infinite-dimensional higher-spin extensions of the Anti-de Sitter groups SO(D-1,2). We propose an invariant…

We use the conjectured strong-weak coupling worldsheet duality between the SL(2)/U(1) and Sine-Liouville conformal field theories to study some properties of degenerate operators and to compute correlation functions in CFT on AdS_3. The…
