Motivated by string field theory, we explore various algebraic aspects of higher spin theory and Vasiliev equation in terms of homotopy algebras. We present a systematic study of unfolded formulation developed for the higher spin equation…

We present some generalities of unfolded on-shell dynamics that are useful in analysing the BMV conjecture for mixed-symmetry fields in constantly curved backgrounds. In particular we classify the Lorentz-covariant Harish-Chandra modules…

This paper discusses some aspects of the Vasiliev system, beginning with a review of a recent proposal for an alternative perturbative scheme: solutions are built by means of a convenient choice of homotopy-contraction operator and…

Vasiliev's higher-spin theories in various dimensions are uniformly represented as a simple system of equations. These equations and their gauge invariances are based on two superalgebras and have a transparent algebraic meaning. For a…

A contribution to the collection of reviews "Introduction to Higher Spin Theory" edited by S. Fredenhagen, this introductory article is a pedagogical account of higher-spin fields and their connections with String Theory. We start with the…

Recent investigation of locality problem for higher-spin fields led to a vertex reconstruction procedure that involved elements of contraction of the original Vasiliev interaction algebra. Inspired by these results we propose the…

We construct an unfolded system that describes an on-shell free massless hypermultiplet and show that the standard harmonic superspace formulation of this model naturally arises from the "vielbeinization" of unfolded 1-forms associated to…

We review and extend some recent results concerning the analysis of spacetime singularities in four-dimensional higher spin gravity, summarizing how the coupling of the gravitational field to massless higher spins may provide resolution…

In recent work we have developed a new unfolding method for computing one-loop modular integrals in string theory involving the Narain partition function and, possibly, a weak almost holomorphic elliptic genus. Unlike the traditional…

This Thesis reviews Vasiliev's approach to Higher-Spin Gauge Theory and contains some original results concerning new exact solutions of the Vasiliev equations and the representation theory of the higher-spin algebra. The review part covers…

We present a complementary approach to the standard Vasiliev framework for nonlinear higher-spin interactions in four dimensions, aimed at identifying their minimally nonlocal form. Our proposal introduces a generating system for…

Motivated by Harish-Chandra theory, we construct, starting from a simple CDD\--pole $S$\--matrix, a hierarchy of new $S$\--matrices involving ever ``higher'' (in the sense of Barnes) gamma functions.These new $S$\--matrices correspond to…

We study a generalization of the D-dimensional Vasiliev theory to include a tower of partially massless fields. This theory is obtained by replacing the usual higher-spin algebra of Killing tensors on (A)dS with a generalization that…

We propose a simple unfolded description of free massive higher spin particles in anti-de-Sitter spacetime. While our unfolded equation of motion has the standard form of a covariant constancy condition, our formulation differs from the…

The $sp(2M)$ invariant unfolded system is considered in the periodic twistor-like spinor space. Complete set of non-trivial charges corresponding to the global symmetry compatible with the periodicity conditions is constructed. Residual…

In this paper, we give a new approach to classify all simple Harish-Chandra modules for the N=1 Ramond algebra based on the so called A-cover theory developed in \cite{BF}

In this paper we classify the irreducible Harish-Chandra bimodules with full support over filtered quantizations of conical symplectic singularities under the condition that none of the slices to codimension 2 symplectic leaves has type…

We construct higher spin quasinormal modes algebraically in $D$-dimensional de Sitter spacetime using the ambient space formalism. The quasinormal modes fall into two nonunitary lowest-weight representations of $\mathfrak{so}(1, D)$. From a…

We describe a class of (2,2) superconformal field theories obtained by fibering a Landau-Ginzburg orbifold CFT over a compact Kaehler base manifold. While such models are naturally obtained as phases in a gauged linear sigma model, our…

A new efficient approach to the analysis of nonlinear higher-spin equations, that treats democratically auxiliary spinor variables $Z_A$ and integration homotopy parameters in the non-linear vertices of the higher-spin theory, is developed.…
