Conformal Interactions Between Matter and Higher‐Spin (Super)Fields

Abstract: In even spacetime dimensions, the interacting bosonic conformal higher‐spin (CHS) theory can be realised as an induced action. The main ingredient in this definition is the model scriptSfalse[φ,hfalse]$\mathcal {S}[\varphi ,h]$ describing a complex scalar field φ coupled to an infinite set of background CHS fields h, with scriptSfalse[φ,hfalse]$\mathcal {S}[\varphi ,h]$ possessing a non‐abelian gauge symmetry. Two characteristic features of the perturbative constructions of scriptSfalse[φ,hfalse]$\mathcal {S}[… Show more

“…□ k ϕ = 0, k > 1 for the scalar matter corresponds to F (0) = (p 2 ) k ; (b) one can choose different types of matter, e.g. fermion ψ, or, more generally, a mixed-symmetry (spin-)tensor field, see [114] for the discussion of the CHS gravity based on the free fermion (called Type-B) and [115,116] for further extensions; (c) supersymmetric extensions should also be possible and be based on the Clifford-Weyl algebra, see the recent [45,61] for N = 1.…”

“…We expect that the approach of this paper provides an efficient way to attack some of the problems of CHS fields that have been around for a while: whether conformal gravity is a consistent truncation of CHS gravity [39][40][41]? ; what are the gravitational backgrounds that admit free CHS fields [39][40][41][42][43][44][45]? ; the structure of (HS) Weyl anomaly and, hence, the problem of quantum consistency of CHS gravity.…”

“…For instance, explicit realisations in terms of free scalar and vector multiplets are known for Jαfalse(rfalse)α̇false(rfalse)$J_{\alpha (r) {\dot{\alpha }}(r)}$, in Minkowski, [ 63–69 ] AdS [ 70 ] and conformally‐flat backgrounds. [ 71 ] Higher‐spin supercurrent Jαfalse(rfalse)α̇false(rfalse)$J_{\alpha (r) {\dot{\alpha }}(r)}$ may also be realised in terms of the on‐shell, gauge‐invariant, chiral field strengths Wα(r)$W_{\alpha (r)}$ obeying D¯β̇Wαfalse(rfalse)=0$ \bar{D}_{\dot{\beta }}W_{\alpha (r)} =0$ and DβWβαfalse(r1false)=0$D^\beta W_{\beta \alpha (r-1)} =0$ . Its realisation is given by [70, 72, 73]: Jαfalse(rfalse)α̇false(rfalse)=Wα(r)trueW¯α̇false(rfalse).$$\begin{eqnarray} J_{\alpha (r) {\dot{\alpha }}(r) } =W_{\alpha (r)} \bar{W}_{{\dot{\alpha }}(r)} .…”
