We define (higher rank) spinorially twisted spin structures and deduce various curvature identites as well as estimates for the eigenvalues of the corresponding twisted Dirac operators.

The construction of accurate and consistent initial data for various binary parameters is a critical ingredient for numerical relativity simulations of the compact binary coalescence. In this article, we present an upgrade of the…

The higher spin Laplace operator has been constructed recently as the generalization of the Laplacian in higher spin theory. This acts on functions taking values in arbitrary irreducible representations of the Spin group. In this paper, we…

We compute boundary three-point functions involving two scalars and a gauge field of arbitrary spin in the AdS vacuum of Vasiliev's higher spin gravity, for any deformation parameter \lambda. In the process, we develop tools for extracting…

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…

The N = 1 superfield formalism in four-dimensions is well formulated and understood, yet there remain unsolved problems. In this thesis, superfield actions for free massless and massive higher spin superfield theories are formulated in four…

We develop a manifest supertwistor space formalism for three dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1, 2,3,4$ superconformal field theories. This formalism simultaneously makes manifest the supersymmetry, conformal invariance and conservation. We solve…

In two previous papers, we started a study of the first eigenvalue of the Dirac operator on compact spin symmetric spaces, providing, for symmetric spaces of "inner" type, a formula giving this first eigenvalue in terms of the algebraic…

We investigate the occurrence of divergences in maximal supergravity in various dimensions from the point of view of supersymmetry constraints on the U-duality invariant threshold functions defining the higher derivative couplings in the…

We consider single-inclusive forward pion production in high-energy proton-proton collisions at RHIC energies. A good baseline description of the transverse momentum distributions at high rapidity is obtained within Mueller's dipole…

Cubic blocks are studied assembled from linear operators $\mathcal R$ acting in the tensor product of $d$ linear "spin" spaces. Such operator is associated with a linear transformation $A$ in a vector space over a field $F$ of a finite…

We investigate the eigengenvalues problem for self-adjoint operators with the singular perturbations. The general results presented here includes weakly as well as strongly singular cases. We illustrate these results on two models which…

We study a Dirichlet-to-Neumann eigenvalue problem for differential forms on a compact Riemannian manifold with smooth boundary. This problem is a natural generalization of the classical Steklov problem on functions. We derive a number of…

We describe complex twistor spaces over inner 3-symmetric spaces $G/H$, such that $H$ acts transitively on the fibre. Like in the symmetric case, these are flag manifolds $G/K$ where $K$ is the centralizer of a torus in $G$. Moreover, they…

We express the scalar four-point function of minimal Vasiliev higher-spin gravity in de Sitter space as an integral over the orthogonal Grassmannian OGr(4,8). The full crossing-symmetric Vasiliev Grassmannian correlator is given by…

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…

We consider conformal field theories around points of large twist degeneracy. Examples of this are theories with weakly broken higher spin symmetry and perturbations around generalised free fields. At the degenerate point we introduce twist…

Denote by ${\mathcal D}$ the open unit disc in the complex plane and $\partial {\mathcal D}$ its boundary. Douglas showed through an identical quantity represented by the Fourier coefficients of the concerned function $u$ that…

Higher-spin symmetry is known to mix lower-spin fields with higher-spin fields, creating a complex interaction picture where no closed finite field sector is expected to exist for dimensions greater than three. By studying the self-dual…

Let A be a self-adjoint operator acting on a Hilbert space. The notion of second order spectrum of A relative to a given finite-dimensional subspace L has been studied recently in connection with the phenomenon of spectral pollution in the…
