On the variational principle in the unfolded dynamics

A. A. Tarusov, M. A. Vasiliev

The interplay between off-shell and on-shell unfolded systems is analysed. The formulation of invariant constraints that put an off-shell system on shell is developed by adding new…

The Cohomology Analysis for Symmetric Higher-Spin Fields

A. S. Bychkov, K. A. Ushakov, M. A. Vasiliev

In this paper, we present a complete proof of the so-called First On-Shell Theorem that determines dynamical content of the unfolded equations for free symmetric massless fields of…

Homotopy Operators and Locality Theorems in Higher-Spin Equations

O. A. Gelfond, M. A. Vasiliev

A new class of shifted homotopy operators in higher-spin gauge theory is introduced. A sufficient condition for locality of dynamical equations is formulated and Pfaffian Locality…

Current Interactions from the One-Form Sector of Nonlinear Higher-Spin Equations

O. A. Gelfond, M. A. Vasiliev

The form of higher-spin current interactions in the sector of one-forms is derived from the nonlinear higher-spin equations in . Quadratic corrections to higher-spin equatio…
