abstract

We analyze quartic gauge-invariant interactions of massless higher spin fields by using vertex operators constructed in our previous works and computing their four-point amplitudes in superstring theory. The kinematic part of the quartic interactions of the higher spins is determined by the matter structure of their vertex operators;the non-locality of the interactions is the consequence of specific ghost structure of these operators. We compute explicitly the four-point amplitude describing the complete gauge-invariant $1-1-3-3$ quartic interaction (two massless spin 3 particles interacting with two photons) and comment on more general $1-1-s-s$ cases, particularly pointing out the structure of $1-1-5-5$ coupling.

  1. Symmetric formulation for higher spin correlators, quantum effective action and anomaly

    hep-th 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The trace anomaly of the higher-spin conformal effective action is shown to be the single source of both trace and gauge anomalies, with a 2s-derivative structure in d=4.

  2. Constructive approach to solution of the conservation condition for conformal higher spin tree-point correlation function with equal spins

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For equal-spin currents up to spin four, conserved three-point correlators can be constructed explicitly as linear combinations of products of spin-one and spin-two Osborn-Petkou building blocks.
