We develop a general formalism to study the three-point correlation functions of conserved higher-spin supercurrent multiplets $J_{\alpha(r) \dot{\alpha}(r)}$ in 4D ${\cal N}=1$ superconformal theory. All the constraints imposed by ${\cal…

Higher spin theories can be efficiently described in terms of auxiliary St\"uckelberg or projective space field multiplets. By considering how higher spin models couple to scale, these approaches can be unified in a conformal…

We revisit the problem of interactions of higher-spin fields in flat space. We argue that all no-go theorems can be avoided by the light-cone approach, which results in more interaction vertices as compared to the usual covariant…

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…
