In four dimensions, partially massless fields of all spins and depths possess a duality invariance akin to electric-magnetic duality. We construct metric-like gauge invariant curvature tensors for partially massless fields of all integer spins and depths, and show how the partially massless equations of motion can be recovered from first order field equations and Bianchi identities for these curvatures. This formulation displays duality in its manifestly local and covariant form, in which it acts to interchange the field equations and Bianchi identities.

    hep-th 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Horizon edge mode spectra in de Sitter and Nariai spacetimes exhibit universal shift symmetries that produce novel symmetry breaking in one-loop partition functions.

    hep-th 2025-07 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    A deformed Calogero model accommodates unitary principal series states of sl(2,R) via operator domain changes, preserving unitarity and invariance while altering integrability, with solutions for N=2 and 3.
