Abstract

There is a simple and elegant formalism developed by D. Francia and A. Sagnotti that allows for an efficient approach to higher-spin theories. With this formalism, the authors have made progress on higher-spin theories invariant under unconstrained gauge symmetries and obtained non-local higher-spin models. In this project, the student will use their final months of undergraduate studies to initiate a study of this formalism and investigate an alternative way to recover some results obtained by the aforementioned authors.
