Scattering of two Kerr Black Holes emitting gravitational waves can be captured by an effective theory of a massive higher-spin field interacting with the gravitational field. While other compact objects should activate a multitude of non-minimal interactions it is the black holes that should be captured by the simplest minimal interaction. Implementing massive higher-spin symmetry via a string-inspired BRST approach we construct an action that reproduces the correct cubic amplitude of Arkani-Hamed--Huang--Huang. The same is achieved for the root-Kerr theory, i.e. for the minimal electromagnetic interaction of a massive higher-spin field.

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Massive higher-spin fields in 3D can couple to electromagnetic backgrounds via the Bogomolny equation, with g=1/s, obtained by dimensional reduction of 4D higher-spin self-dual Yang-Mills theory.

  2. BRST-BV approach to fields in Poincare patch of AdS

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.5 of 10

    A universal BRST-BV Lagrangian for free AdS fields is obtained by solving algebraic defining equations for spin operators, with explicit solutions for totally symmetric integer-spin and continuous-spin fields.

  3. General Lagrangian formulations for mixed-antisymmetric tensor fields on flat backgrounds

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.5 of 10

    Lagrangian formulations for mixed-antisymmetric higher-spin fields with k-column Young tableaux are constructed via complete and incomplete BRST operators after converting constraints using Verma modules and Howe duality.
