Higher Spin Gauge Theory: Conceptual Rethinking and Abstract Approaches (Texts and Monographs in Theoretical Physics) (De Gruyter Studies in Mathematical Physics)

by Anders Bengtsson

This monograph takes stock of the situation in higher spin gauge theories for the first time. Besides a thorough recapitulation of the field's history, it reviews the progress that has been made and offers a pedagogical introduction to the subject. Abstract approaches to the theory are offered to facilitate a conceptual rethinking of the main problems and to help see patterns hidden by heavy formalism.
