Yes-Go and No-Go for Higher-Spin Fields

Speaker:

Zhenya Skvortsov (Lebedev Physical Institute)

Location:

Address:

Mitchell Institute for Fundamental Physics & Astronomy

College Station, Texas 77843

Event Details

I will review some of the most famous no-go results for theories with massless higher-spin fields and then show how all of them can be avoided with the help of the light-front quantization. In particular, one can construct an example of a consistent higher-spin theory in flat space.
