In this article we study the algebra generated by the holographically reconstructed cubic couplings for the type A minimal bosonic higher-spin theory on AdS$_{d+1}$, which were recently extracted from the free scalar $O(N)$ model. We…

Assuming the existence of the dS/CFT correspondence, we construct local scalar fields with $m^2>\left( \frac{d}{2} \right)^2$ in de Sitter space by smearing over conformal field theory operators on the future/past boundary. To maintain bulk…

We study asymptotic charges for symmetric massless higher-spin fields on Anti de Sitter backgrounds of arbitrary dimension within the canonical formalism. We first analyse in detail the spin-3 example: we cast Fronsdal's action in…

A main purpose of this paper is to explain how the theory of higher spin fields in flat D=4 space and in AdS(4) emerges as a result of the quantization of a superparticle propagating in so called tensorial superspaces which have the…

We conjecture that Vasiliev's theory of higher spin gravity in four-dimensional de Sitter space (dS) is holographically dual to a three-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) living on the spacelike boundary of dS at future timelike…

We study Vasiliev's higher-spin gravity in 3+1d. We formulate the theory in the so-called compensator formalism, where the local isometry group SO(4,1) is reduced to the Lorentz group SO(3,1) by a choice of spacelike direction in an…

We present a covariant quantization of the free "massive" spin-3/2 fields in four-dimensional de Sitter space-time based on analyticity in the complexified pseudo-Riemannian manifold. The field equation is obtained as an eigenvalue equation…

Utilizing the conformal-flatness nature of 3-dim. Anti-de Sitter (AdS_3) black hole solution of Banados, Teitelboim and Zanelli, the quantisation of conformally-coupled scalar and spinor fields in this background spacetime is explicitly…

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…

Starting from the classical action for a spin-zero particle in a D-dimensional anti-Sitter (AdS) spacetime, we recover the Breitenlohner-Freedman bound by quantization. For D=4,5,7, and using an Sl(2;K) spinor notation for K=R,C,H, we find…

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…
