We revisit the classical phenomenon of duality between random integer-valued height functions with positive definite potentials and abelian spin models with O(2) symmetry. We use it to derive new results in quite high generality including:…
We review various off-shell formulations for interacting higher-spin systems in dimensions 3 and 4. Associated with higher-spin systems in spacetime dimension 4 is a Chern-Simons action for a superconnection taking its values in a direct…
We examine in detail the higher spin fields which arise on the basic fuzzy sphere $S^4_N$ in the semi-classical limit. The space of functions can be identified with functions on classical $S^4$ taking values in a higher spin algebra…
The form of higher-spin current interactions in $AdS_4$ is derived from the full nonlinear higher-spin equations in the sector of Weyl 0-forms. The coupling constant in front of spin-one currents built from scalars and spinors as well as…
In this work we construct an infinite class of four-point functions for massless higher-spin fields in flat space that are consistent with the gauge symmetry. In the Lagrangian picture, these reflect themselves in a peculiar non-local…
Nonabelian Fradkin-Vasiliev cubic interactions for dual-graviton-like gauge fields with gravity and themselves are constructed in anti-de Sitter spacetime. The Young diagrams of gauge potentials have shapes of 'tall-hooks', i.e. two columns…
We consider an example of vectorial AdS_5/CFT_4 duality when the boundary theory is described by N free complex or real Maxwell fields. It is dual to a particular ("type C") higher spin theory in AdS_5 containing fields in special…
We calculate the anomalous dimensions of higher spin singlet currents in the critical $O(N)$ vector model at order $1/N^2$. The results are shown to be in agreement with the four-loop perturbative computation in $\phi^4$ theory in…
We study correlation functions of scalar operators on the boundary of the $AdS_3$ space deformed by moving massive particles in the context of the AdS/CFT duality. To calculate two-point correlation functions we use the geodesic…
Recently a duality between a family of \mathcal{N}=2 supersymmetric higher spin theories on AdS3, and the 't Hooft like limit of a class of Kazama-Suzuki models (that are parametrised by N and k) was proposed. The higher spin theories can…
We show that the recently proposed equations for holomorphic sector of higher-spin theory in $d=4$, also known as chiral, can be naturally extended to describe interacting symmetric higher-spin gauge fields in any dimension. This is…
We extend recent work on the relation of 4d and 3d IR dualities of supersymmetric gauge theories with four supercharges to the case of orthogonal gauge groups. The distinction between different SO(N) gauge theories in 4d plays an important…
We calculate the anomalous dimensions of higher-spin currents, both singlet and non-singlet, in the Gross-Neveu model at the $1/n^2$ order. It was conjectured that in the critical regime this model is dual to a higher-spin gauge theory on…
Here we perform a Kaluza-Klein dimensional reduction of Vasiliev's first-order description of massless spin-s particles from $D=3+1$ to $D=2+1$ and derive first-order self-dual models describing particles with helicities $\pm s$ for the…

In three spacetime dimensions, (super)conformal geometry is controlled by the (super) Cotton tensor. We present a new duality transformation for N-extended supersymmetric theories formulated in terms of the linearised super-Cotton tensor or…
