Flat from AdS: in any even dimension and for any spin
Xavier Bekaert, Andrea Campoleoni, Simon Pekar +1
The space of solutions to the free equations of motion for massless fields of arbitrary integer spin in Minkowski spacetime is recovered as a smooth limit of the anti-de Sitter sol…
Higher-Spin Gravity in Two Dimensions with Vanishing Cosmological Constant
Xavier Bekaert, Michel Pannier
In this paper, we use a version of the BF formulation of two-dimensional dilaton gravity that allows to define a gauge theory of the two-dimensional Poincaré or Maxwell algebras an…
On Higher Spin Theory: Strings, BRST, Dimensional Reductions
X. Bekaert, I. L. Buchbinder, A. Pashnev +1
We briefly review some modern developments in higher spin field theory and their links with superstring theory. The analysis is based on various BRST constructions allowing to deri…
Gravitational Lorentz Violations from M-Theory
X. Bekaert, N. Boulanger, J. F. Vazquez-Poritz
In an attempt to bridge the gap between M-theory and braneworld phenomenology, we present various gravitational Lorentz-violating braneworlds which arise from p-brane systems. Lore…
