Quadratic, second-order, non-local actions for tensor gauge fields transforming in arbitrary irreducible representations of the general linear group in D-dimensional Minkowski space are explicitly written in a compact form by making use of Levi-Civita tensors. The field equations derived from these actions ensure the propagation of the correct massless physical degrees of freedom and are shown to be equivalent to non-Lagrangian local field equations proposed previously. Moreover, these actions allow a frame-like reformulation a la MacDowell-Mansouri, without any trace constraint in the tangent indices.

  1. Noble Dark Matter: Surprising Elusiveness of Dark Baryons

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Dark baryons made of SU(2)_L multiplet dark quarks are predicted to be dominated by an SU(2)_L singlet state above TeV masses, which strongly suppresses interactions with the Standard Model.

    The authors construct Stueckelberg completions for massive mixed-symmetry tensor fields and derive mixed-symmetry currents and a 't Hooft anomaly for linearized gravity, but a sign error invalidates the (2,1) current ...

  3. Covariant variation and its applications

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A metric-compatible covariant variation of tensors has a non-closure anomaly that reproduces electromagnetic helicity flux under superrotations and generalizes to higher-spin and p-form radiative data.
