  3. BRST methods for constructing quartic actions for spinning black holes

    hep-th 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A BRST formulation yields a single constraint per off-shell quartic vertex ensuring gauge invariance and associativity, with example solutions for low-spin cases in black hole scattering.

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Lagrangian formulations for mixed-antisymmetric higher-spin fields with k-column Young tableaux are constructed via complete and incomplete BRST operators after converting constraints using Verma modules and Howe duality.
