On the particle content of MHS theory
Maro Cvitan, Predrag Dominis Prester, Stefano Giaccari +2
The Moyal-Higher-Spin (MHS) formalism, involving fields dependent on spacetime and auxiliary coordinates, is an approach to studying higher spin (HS)-like models. To determine the…
HS in flat spacetime. YM-like models
L. Bonora, M. Cvitan, P. Dominis Prester +2
We introduce and analyse a few examples of massless higher spin theories in Minkowski spacetime. They are defined in terms of master fields, i.e. fields defined in the whole phase…
HS in flat spacetime. The effective action method
L. Bonora, M. Cvitan, P. Dominis Prester +2
This is the first paper in a series of three dealing with HS theories in flat spacetime. It is divided in three parts. The first part is an elaboration on the method of effective a…
Axial gravity: a non-perturbative approach to split anomalies
L. Bonora, M. Cvitan, P. Dominis Prester +3
In a theory of a Dirac fermion field coupled to a metric-axial-tensor (MAT) background, using a Schwinger-DeWitt heat kernel technique, we compute non-perturbatively the two (odd p…
Worldline quantization of field theory, effective actions and structure
L. Bonora, M. Cvitan, P. Dominis Prester +3
We formulate the worldline quantization of a massive fermion model coupled to external higher spin sources. We use the relations obtained in this way to show that its regularized e…
One-loop effective actions and higher spins. II
L. Bonora, M. Cvitan, P. Dominis Prester +2
In this paper we continue and improve the analysis of the effective actions obtained by integrating out a scalar and a fermion field coupled to external symmetric sources, started…
