$Sp(2M)$ invariant field equations in the space ${\cal M}_M$ with symmetric matrix coordinates are classified. Analogous results are obtained for Minkowski-like subspaces of ${\cal M}_M$ which include usual $4d$ Minkowski space as a…
We derive the product law for the simplest multi-particle higher-spin algebra $M_2(A)$ and its factor-algebra $M^2(A)$ with rank-one fields factored out. Equations of motion for the systems resulting from these algebras are analysed. We…
Recently, the generating system that describes interacting symmetric higher-spin gauge fields at the level of equations of motion was proposed. The interaction vertices it offers are 'off the mass shell' unless constrained by the prescribed…
We factorize 4d Fradkin-Linetsky higher spin conformal algebra by maximal ideal $I^1-\alpha$ and construct irreducible infinite-dimensional modules $M_\alpha$ of 4d conformal algebra that are parameterized by real number $\alpha$. It is…

Massive higher-spin states/fields appear in the effective description of various systems from hadrons and nuclei to black holes, whenever the point-particle approximation is justified, as well as in the bottom-up approaches to the quantum…
Unfolded equations of motion for symmetric massive bosonic fields of any spin in Minkowski and (A)dS spaces are presented. Manifestly gauge invariant action for a spin $s \ge 2$ massive field in any dimension is constructed in terms of…
We use on-shell Supersymmetry to constrain the three-point function of two massless particles and one massive particle in 3+1 dimensions. We use this information to write down the tree-level four-point function of massless particles for…
It is shown that the Schrodinger symmetry algebra of a free particle in d spatial dimensions can be embedded into a representation of the higher-spin algebra. The latter spans an infinite dimensional algebra of higher-order symmetry…

Let $\Sigma$ be an open Riemann surface and $Hol (\Sigma)$ be the Lie algebra of holomorphic vector fields on $\Sigma.$ We fix a projective structure (i.e. a local $SL_2(C)-$structure) on $\Sigma.$ We calculate the first group of cohomology…
Let X be a simply connected space and k a commutative ring. Goodwillie, Burghelea and Fiedorowiscz proved that the Hochschild cohomology of the singular chains on the pointed loop space HH^{*}S_*(\Omega X) is isomorphic to the free loop…
We analyze a novel approach to gauging rigid higher derivative (higher spin) symmetries of free relativistic actions defined on flat spacetime, building on the formalism originally developed by Bonora et al. and Bekaert et al. in their…
It is known that the Maxwell theory in $D$ dimensions can be written in a first order form (in derivatives) by introducing a totally antisymmetric field which leads to a $(D-3)$-form dual theory. Remarkably, one can replace the…
The spline complex $\mathcal{R}/\mathcal{J}[\Sigma]$ whose top homology is the algebra $C^\alpha(\Sigma)$ of mixed splines over the fan $\Sigma\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ was introduced by Schenck-Stillman in [Schenck-Stillman 97] as a variant…

Analysis of the first-order corrections to higher-spin equations is extended to homotopy operators involving shift parameters with respect to the spinor $Y$ variables, the argument of the higher-spin connection $\omega(Y)$ and the argument…
We focus on the geometrical reformulation of free higher spin supermultiplets in $4\rm{D},~\mathcal{N}=1$ flat superspace. We find that there is a de Wit-Freedman like hierarchy of superconnections with simple gauge transformations. The…
We address the issue of electromagnetic interaction for massive higher-spin fields in $3d$ Minkowski space. We show that consistent field equations can be obtained through the dimensional reduction of the higher-spin extension of self-dual…
