We investigate the unfolded formulation of bosonic Lorentz tensor fields of arbitrary spin in $AdS_3$ containing a parity breaking mass parameter. They include deformations of the linearisations of the Prokushkin--Vasiliev higher spin theory around its critical points. They also provide unfolded formulations of linearized topologically massive higher spin fields including their critical versions. The gauge invariant degrees of freedom are captured by infinite towers of zero forms. We also introduce two inequivalent sets of gauge potentials given by trace constrained Fronsdal fields and trace unconstrained metric-like fields.

  1. On the frame-like multispinor formalism for massive higher spins in d=4

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Explicit solutions are derived for the on-shell constraints of massive higher-spin fields in a frame-like multispinor formalism in 4D spacetime, with generalization to arbitrary spins and connection to unfolded equations.

  2. Minimal Massive Gravity Coupled to Higher Spins

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    Minimal Massive Gravity is coupled to a finite sl(N) tower of higher-spin fields, giving a Stückelberg formulation, AdS2 x S1 hair solutions, and two massive modes (spin j and j-2) for each spin-j > 2 field.

  3. De Sitter Representations

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted

    Review of so(1,D) representations for de Sitter space across all D, covering mixed symmetry and fermions, connected to propagating fields.
