Induced action for superconformal higher-spin multiplets using SCFT techniques

Abstract

Recently, the interacting $\mathcal{N}=1$ superconformal higher-spin theory in four dimensions has been proposed within the induced action approach. In this paper we initiate a program of computing perturbative corrections to the corresponding action and explicitly evaluate all quadratic terms. This is achieved by employing standard techniques from superconformal field theory.
