We construct a novel higher-spin theory of gravity in 2+1 spacetime dimensions. The construction is based on a higher-spin super-algebra extending the Poincare group. Our algebra accommodates all integer and half-integer spins from 1 to…
Starting from a nonlinear isospinor-spinor field equation, generalized three-particle Bargmann-Wigner equations are derived. In the strong-coupling limit, a special class of spin 1/2 bound-states are calculated. These solutions which are…
Let $P^{2n+1}$ be a two-cell complex which is formed by attaching a $(2n+1)$--cell to a $2m$--sphere by a suspension map. We construct a universal space $U$ for $P^{2n+1}$ in the category of homotopy associative, homotopy commutative…

We derive constraints on two-dimensional conformal field theories with higher spin symmetry due to unitarity, modular invariance, and causality. We focus on CFTs with $\mathcal{W}_N$ symmetry in the "irrational" regime, where $c>N-1$ and…

As a step towards quantization of Higher Spin Gravities we construct the presymplectic AKSZ sigma-model for $4d$ Higher Spin Gravity which is AdS/CFT dual of Chern-Simons vector models. It is shown that the presymplectic structure leads to…
The Kronecker modules (or matrix pencils) are the representations of the n-Kronecker quiver K(n) (the quiver with two vertices, namely a sink and a source, and n arrows) over some fixed field. The universal cover of K(n) is the n-regular…
