Mixed-symmetry fields in de Sitter space: a group theoretical glance
Thomas Basile, Xavier Bekaert, Nicolas Boulanger
We rederive the characters of all unitary irreducible representations of the -dimensional de Sitter spacetime isometry algebra , and propose a dictiona…

Higher Spin Double Field Theory : A Proposal
Xavier Bekaert, Jeong-Hyuck Park
We construct a double field theory coupled to the fields present in Vasiliev's equations. Employing the "semi-covariant" differential geometry, we spell a functional in which each…

Bulk quartic vertices from boundary four-point correlators
Xavier Bekaert, Johanna Erdmenger, Dmitry Ponomarev +1
We present arguments which suggest that the bulk higher-spin gravity duals of weakly-coupled conformal field theories obey some refined notion of locality. In particular, we discus…
