The N = 1 superfield formalism in four-dimensions is well formulated and understood, yet there remain unsolved problems. In this thesis, superfield actions for free massless and massive higher spin superfield theories are formulated in four…
The propagator of a spinning particle in external Abelian field and in arbitrary dimensions is presented by means of a path integral. The problem has different solutions in even and odd dimensions. In even dimensions the representation is…
We present D=3 and D=4 models for massive particles moving in a new type of enlarged spacetime, with D-1 additional vector coordinates, which after quantization lead to the towers of massive higher spin (HS) free fields. Two classically…

We propose a "master" higher-spin (HS) particle system. The particle model relevant to the unfolded formulation of HS theory, as well as the HS particle model with a bosonic counterpart of supersymmetry, follow from the master model as its…
A well known description of superradiance from pointlike collections of many atoms involves the dissipative motion of a large spin. The pertinent ``superradiance master equation'' allows for a formally exact solution which we subject to a…
We propose a covariant Hamiltonian action for the Prokushkin and Vasiliev's matter coupled higher spin gravity in three dimensions. The action is formulated on ${\cal X}_4 \times {\cal Z}_2$ where ${\cal X}_4$ is an open manifold whose…
Under the spin-position decoupling approximation, a vector with a phase in 3D orientation space endowed with geometric algebra, substitutes the vector-matrix spin model built on the Pauli spin operator. The standard quantum operator-state…

We classify four-state spin models with interactions along the edges according to their behavior under a specific group of symmetry transformations. This analysis uses the measure of complexity of the action of the symmetries, in the spirit…
Here we start from a dual version of Vasiliev's first order action for massless spin-2 particles (linearized first order Einstein-Hilbert) and derive, via Kaluza-Klein dimensional reduction from $D+1$ to $D$ dimensions, a set of dual…
In the collider phenomenology of extensions of the Standard Model with partner particles, cascade decays occur generically, and they can be challenging to discover when the spectrum of new particles is compressed and the signal cross…
The Maxwell theory can be written as a first order model with the help of a two-form auxiliary field, such master action allows the proof of duality between $1$-form and $D-3$ forms. Here we show that the replacement of the two-form…
A theoretical formalism leading to elegant derivation of formulae for all spin observables is outlined for photo production of mesons with arbitrary spin parity $s^{\pi}$. The salient features of this formalism based on irreducible tensor…

We extend the four-dimensional unsubtraction method, which is based on the loop-tree duality (LTD), to deal with processes involving heavy particles. The method allows to perform the summation over degenerate IR configurations directly at…
The inclusive four-particle phase space integral of any $1\to 4$ matrix element in massless QCD contains divergences due to the soft and collinear emission of up to two particles in the final state. We show that any term appearing in this…
The equations of motion that must be satisfied by fields that constitute realizations of the Poincare group algebra, for integral spin, and mass m, are obtained. For the case of massive spin 2 these equations are satisfied by the selfdual,…
