Duality invariance of all free bosonic and fermionic gauge fields
We give a simple general extension to all free bosonic and fermionic massless gauge fields of a recent proof that spin 2 is duality invariant in flat space. We also discuss its validity in (A)dS backgrounds and the relevance of supersymmetry. Recently [1], it was shown that the duality invariance originally established [2] for Maxwell theory in D=4, extends to free massless spin 2. It was also ...
متن کاملLagrangian formulations for Bose and Fermi higher-spin fields of mixed symmetry
We review the structure of local Lagrangians and field equations for free bosonic and fermionic gauge fields of mixed symmetry in flat space. These are first presented in a constrained setting and then the (γ-)trace constraints on fields and gauge parameters are eliminated via the introduction of a number of auxiliary fields. Based on the talk presented at the XVIII SIGRAV Conference on General...
متن کاملOn Lagrangian formulations for mixed-symmetry HS fields on AdS spaces within BFV-BRST approach
The key aspects of a gauge-invariant Lagrangian description of massive and massless half-integer higher-spin fields in AdS spaces with a two-row Young tableaux Y (s1, s2) are presented in an unconstrained description, as well as in off-shell formulations with algebraic constraints, on the basis of BFV-BRST operators for non-linear operator superalgebras, encoding the initial conditions realized...
متن کاملHOW MASSLESS ARE MASSLESS FIELDS IN AdSd
Massless fields of generic Young symmetry type in AdSd space are analyzed. It is demonstrated that in contrast to massless fields in Minkowski space whose physical degrees of freedom transform in irreps of o(d−2) algebra, AdS massless mixed symmetry fields reduce to a number of irreps of o(d− 2) algebra. From the field theory perspective this means that not every massless field in flat space ad...
متن کاملA Dual Lagrangian for Non-Abelian Tensor Gauge Fields
For non-Abelian tensor gauge fields of the lower rank we have found an alternative expression for the field strength tensors, which transform homogeneously with respect to the complementary gauge transformations and allow us to construct the dual Lagrangian. jessica(AT)raunvis.hi.is savvidy(AT)inp.demokritos.gr
