Totally symmetric massless fermionic fields of arbitrary spins in AdS(5) are described as su(2,2) multispinors. The approach is based on the well-known isomorfism o(4,2)=su(2,2). Explicitly gauge invariant higher spin free actions are…
It is shown that an action inspired from a BF and Chern-Simons model, based on the $AdS_4$ isometry group SO(3, 2), with the inclusion of a Higgs potential term, furnishes the MacDowell-Mansouri-Chamseddine-West action for gravity, with a…
Interacting AdS_4 higher spin gauge theories with N \geq 1 supersymmetry so far have been formulated as constrained systems of differential forms living in a twistor extension of 4D spacetime. Here we formulate the minimal N=1 theory in…
Fock module realization for the unitary singleton representations of the $d-1$ dimensional conformal algebra $o(d-1,2)$, which correspond to the spaces of one-particle states of massless scalar and spinor in $d-1$ dimensions, is given. The…
We investigate the unfolded formulation of bosonic Lorentz tensor fields of arbitrary spin in $AdS_3$ containing a parity breaking mass parameter. They include deformations of the linearisations of the Prokushkin--Vasiliev higher spin…

We consider (2+1)-dimensional (N, M)-extended higher-spin anti-de Sitter supergravity and study its asymptotic symmetries. The theory is described by the Chern-Simons action based on a real, infinite-dimensional higher-spin superalgebra. We…
The dynamics of totally symmetric free massless higher spin fields in $AdS_d$ is reformulated in terms of the compensator formalism for AdS gravity. The $AdS_5$ higher spin algebra is identified with the star product algebra with the…
In this paper we discuss in detail the frame-like formulation of free bosonic massless higher-spin fields of general symmetry type in AdS(d), announced recently in hep-th/0311164, hep-th/0501108. Properties of gauge invariant and AdS…
We generalize the first class constraints that describe the infinite spin irreducible $4D$ Poincar\'{e} group representation in flat space to new first class constraints in $AdS_4$ space. The constraints are realized as operators acting in…
In three dimensions, there are two types of ${\cal N}=2$ anti-de Sitter (AdS) supersymmetry, which are denoted (1,1) and (2,0). They are characterised by different supercurrents and support different families of higher-spin gauge models…
A physical and geometrical interpretation of previously introduced tensor operator algebras of U(2,2) in terms of algebras of higher-conformal-spin quantum fields on the anti-de Sitter space AdS_5 is provided. These are higher-dimensional…
The frame-like covariant Lagrangian formulation of bosonic and fermionic mixed-symmetry type higher spin massless fields propagating on the AdS(d) background is proposed. Higher spin fields are described in terms of gauge p-forms which…
Higher spin field theory on AdS(4) is defined by lifting the minimal conformal sigma model in three dimensional flat space. This allows to calculate the masses from the anomalous dimensions of the currents in the sigma model. The Goldstone…
We propose the action of d=4 Anti-de Sitter (AdS) spinning particle with arbitrary fixed quantum numbers. Regardless of the spin value, the configuration space of the model is a direct product of d=4 AdS space and two-dimensional sphere…
