Spinor-helicity formalism for continuous-spin particles
Thomas Basile, Xavier Bekaert, Felipe Figueroa +1
We propose a new formulation of continuous-spin particles (CSP) with the help of a single two-component spinor to build asymptotic states. This formulation allows to write down amp…
Dirichlet, Neumann, Mixed and self-dual holography: (self-dual) Yang--Mills theory II
Evgeny Skvortsov, Richard Van Dongen
We consider Yang--Mills, Chalmers--Siegel and self-dual Yang--Mills (SDYM) theories within AdS/CFT correspondence. Bulk-to-bulk and boundary-to-bulk propagators are derived in vari…
Self-dual holography: four-point AdS/CFT correlators in higher-spin gravity
Evgeny Skvortsov, Richard Van Dongen
Self-dual theories, being UV-finite, should have their own AdS/CFT dualities. Higher-spin extensions of self-dual theories are attractive to simplify the CFT duals. The maximal sel…
Amplitudes in self-dual (higher-spin) theories
Mattia Serrani, Evgeny Skvortsov
Self-dual theories are powerful toy models of their completions. It was shown recently that there are infinitely many SD-theories once massless higher-spin fields are allowed. The…
Dirichlet, Neumann, Mixed and self-dual holography: (self-dual) Yang-Mills theory
Evgeny Skvortsov, Richard Van Dongen
Motivated by applications of self-dual theories to the AdS/CFT correspondence, we study self-dual Yang-Mills theory (SDYM) and its relation to Yang-Mills theory and to Chalmers-Sie…
Multisymplectic AKSZ sigma models
Thomas Basile, Maxim Grigoriev, Evgeny Skvortsov
The Alexandrov-Kontsevich-Schwarz-Zaboronsky (AKSZ) construction encodes all the data of a topological sigma-model in the finite-dimensional symplectic -manifold. Relaxing the n…
