Towards metric-like higher-spin gauge theories in three dimensions
Andrea Campoleoni, Stefan Fredenhagen, Stefan Pfenninger +1
We consider the coupling of a symmetric spin-3 gauge field to three-dimensional gravity in a second order metric-like formulation. The action that corresponds to an SL(3,R) x SL(3,…
Asymptotic W-symmetries in three-dimensional higher-spin gauge theories
Andrea Campoleoni, Stefan Fredenhagen, Stefan Pfenninger
We discuss how to systematically compute the asymptotic symmetry algebras of generic three-dimensional bosonic higher-spin gauge theories in backgrounds that are asymptotically AdS…
Asymptotic symmetries of three-dimensional gravity coupled to higher-spin fields
Andrea Campoleoni, Stefan Fredenhagen, Stefan Pfenninger +1
We discuss the emergence of W-algebras as asymptotic symmetries of higher-spin gauge theories coupled to three-dimensional Einstein gravity with a negative cosmological constant. W…
