The symmetries of string theory on ${\rm AdS}_3 \times {\rm S}^3 \times \mathbb{T}^4$ at the dual of the symmetric product orbifold point are described by a so-called Higher Spin Square (HSS). We show that the massive string spectrum in…
New homotopy approach to the analysis of nonlinear higher-spin equations is developed. It is shown to directly reproduce the previously obtained local vertices. Simplest cubic (quartic in Lagrangian nomenclature) higher-spin interaction…

Recently, a unique class of local Higher Spin Gravities with propagating massless fields in $4d$ - Chiral Higher Spin Gravity - was given a covariant formulation both in flat and $(A)dS_4$ spacetimes at the level of equations of motion. We…
Higher spin (HS) fields naturally occur in string theory, they are considered as a candidate for dark matter and may also appear as a collective excitation in condensed matter systems. In some cases one may study the HS fields in the…
Scalar field theories in $\text{(A)dS}_{2}$ with integer scaling dimensions $\Delta = k+1$ are characterised by the existence of a pair of (anti-)holomorphic higher-spin currents. We explore the consequences of this to describe their…
These notes comprise a part of the introductory lectures on Higher Spin Theory presented in the Eighth Modave Summer School in Mathematical Physics. We construct free higher-spin theories and turn on interactions to find that…
The monograph offers a coherent and self-contained treatment of massless (ladder) representations of the conformal group U(2,2) and their restriction to the de Sitter group Sp(2,2), combining rigorous representation-theoretic analysis with…
The bundles suitable for a description of higher-spin fields can be built in terms of a 2-spinor bundle as the basic `building block'. This allows a clear, direct view of geometric constructions aimed at a theory of such fields on a curved…
In this paper we propose and investigate in full generality new notions of (continuous, non-isometric) symmetry on hyperk\"ahler spaces. These can be grouped into two categories, corresponding to the two basic types of continuous…
