Metric-like Cubic Vertices for Massless Bosonic Higher-Spin Fields in AdS

Freddie King, Taylor Pomfret, Karapet Mkrtchyan

We derive parity-even transverse-traceless metric-like cubic vertices for massless bosonic higher-spin fields in AdS. Starting from the known two- and three-derivative vertices…

Linearised gravity as edge modes & manifest duality and Lorentz covariance

Calvin Y. -R. Chen, Euihun Joung, Karapet Mkrtchyan

We present the first formulation of linearised gravity in four dimensions which is manifestly Lorentz covariant and democratic, i.e. treats the two frames related by electric-magne…

Higher-order chiral scalar from boundary reduction of 3d higher-spin gravity

Calvin Yi-Ren Chen, Euihun Joung, Karapet Mkrtchyan +1

We use a recently proposed covariant procedure to reduce the Chern-Simons action of three-dimensional higher-spin gravity to the boundary, resulting in a Lorentz covariant action f…

Interactions of massless fermionic fields in three dimensions

Stefan Fredenhagen, Filipp Lausch, Karapet Mkrtchyan

All independent interaction vertices involving massless (Fang--Fronsdal) fermions in three dimensions are classified, completing the classification of interactions of massless fiel…

Spinor-helicity representations of (A)dS particles of any mass

Thomas Basile, Euihun Joung, Karapet Mkrtchyan +1

The spinor-helicity representations of massive and (partially-)massless particles in four dimensional (Anti-) de Sitter spacetime are studied within the framework of the dual pair…

Democracy from topology

Oleg Evnin, Euihun Joung, Karapet Mkrtchyan

Chiral form fields in dimensions can be effectively described as edge modes of topological Chern-Simons theories in dimensions. At the same time, manifestly Lorentz-invar…
