abstract

We study the large gauge transformations of massless higher-spin fields in four-dimensional Minkowski space. Upon imposing suitable fall-off conditions, providing higher-spin counterparts of the Bondi gauge, we observe the existence of an infinite-dimensional asymptotic symmetry algebra. The corresponding Ward identities can be held responsible for Weinberg's factorization theorem for amplitudes involving soft particles of spin greater than two.

Note on higher spins and holographic symmetry algebra

hep-th · 2026-02-03 · unverdicted · novelty 4.0

Higher spin particles generate w_∞ and S-algebra subalgebras inside the soft holographic symmetry algebra that do not commute with the graviton and gluon versions.
