Funded Activity Summary

Advances in HIgher Spin Gauge Theory. This project aims to explore the dynamical and geometrical aspects of higher spin gauge theory that have recently become the focus of enormous interest worldwide. Higher spin gauge theory is a unique generalisation of Einstein’s gravitation theory, which possesses maximal gauge symmetry and is a novel candidate for quantum gravity. Expected project outcomes include a better understanding of higher-spin interaction vertices, correlation functions, and other conceptual results of major importance to mathematical physics.
