This article derives and presents the Feynman rules for (effective) Quantum General Relativity coupled to the Standard Model for any vertex valence and with general gauge parameter $\zeta$. The results are worked out for the metric…
The generalized curvature tensor and Christoffel symbols are determined in AdS_{d+1} background by a modified ansatz of the de Wit - Freedman type by imposing gauge invariance. The resulting set of recurrence relations and difference…
Massive higher-spin states/fields appear in the effective description of various systems from hadrons and nuclei to black holes, whenever the point-particle approximation is justified, as well as in the bottom-up approaches to the quantum…
In effective quantum field theories, higher dimensional operators can affect the canonical normalization of kinetic terms at tree level. These contributions for scalars and gauge bosons should be carefully included in the gauge fixing…
A detailed analysis of the structure and gauge dependence of the bulk-to-bulk propagators for the higher spin gauge fields in $AdS$ space is performed. The possible freedom in the construction of the propagators is investigated and fixed by…
We study the formulation of massless higher-spin gravity on AdS$_3$ in a gauge in which the fundamental variables satisfy free field Poisson brackets. This gauge choice leaves a small portion of the gauge freedom unfixed, which should be…
In this letter we provide a complete holographic reconstruction of the cubic couplings in the minimal bosonic higher-spin theory in AdS$_{d+1}$. For this purpose we also determine the OPE coefficients of all single-trace conserved currents…
When performing a full calculation within the Standard Model or its extensions, it is crucial that one utilizes a consistent set of signs for the gauge couplings and gauge fields. Unfortunately, the literature is plagued with differing…
Interacting AdS_4 higher spin gauge theories with N \geq 1 supersymmetry so far have been formulated as constrained systems of differential forms living in a twistor extension of 4D spacetime. Here we formulate the minimal N=1 theory in…
Relativistic particles with higher spin can be described in first quantization using actions with local supersymmetry on the worldline. First, we present a brief review of these actions and their use in first quantization. In a Dirac…
In a way analogous to type IIB supergravity, we give a covariant action for the fermion field supplemented with a constraint which should be imposed on equations of motion, in Berkovits' open superstring field theory. From this action we…
A consistent phenomenology of the interaction of particles of arbitrary spin requires covariant spinors, field operators, propagators and model interactions. Guided by an approach originally proposed by Weinberg, we construct from group…
The present thesis aims at an extension of the canonical formalism of Arnowitt, Deser, and Misner from self-gravitating point-masses to objects with spin. This would allow interesting applications, e.g., within the post-Newtonian (PN)…
We build the asymptotic higher-spin charges associated with "improper" gauge transformations for fermionic higher-spin gauge fields on Anti de Sitter backgrounds of arbitrary dimension. This is achieved within the canonical formalism. We…
We review the theory of higher-spin gauge fields in four and three space-time dimensions and present some new results on higher-spin gauge interactions of matter fields in two dimensions.
We develop an effective field theory of a generic massive particle of any spin and, as an example, apply this to study higher-spin dark matter (DM). Our formalism does not introduce unphysical degrees of freedom, thus avoiding the potential…
The high-order behavior of the perturbation expansion in the cubic replica field theory of spin glasses in the paramagnetic phase has been investigated. The study starts with the zero-dimensional version of the replica field theory and this…
We construct consistent bosonic higher-spin gauge theories in odd dimensions D>3 based on Chern-Simons forms. The gauge groups are infinite-dimensional higher-spin extensions of the Anti-de Sitter groups SO(D-1,2). We propose an invariant…
The wave function in the quantum theory of the O(N) extended supersymmetric particle model describes a massless free field with spin N/2. This quantum theory is here exactly solved in terms of gauge fields in arbitrary even dimensions using…
We present an introduction to Group Field Theory models, motivating them on the basis of their relationship with discretized BF models of gravity. We derive the Feynmann rules and compute quantum corrections in the coherent states basis.
