We consider a free massless scalar field coupled to an infinite tower of background higher-spin gauge fields via minimal coupling to the traceless conserved currents. The set of Abelian gauge transformations is deformed to the non-Abelian…
In this paper we construct explicit Lagrangian formulation for the massive spin-2 supermultiplets with N = k supersymmetries k = 1,2,3,4. Such multiplets contain 2k particles with spin-3/2, so there must exist N = 2k local supersymmetries…
