On Higher Spin Theory: Strings, BRST, Dimensional Reductions

preprint2004arXivOpen access

Abstract

We briefly review some modern developments in higher spin field theory and their links with superstring theory. The analysis is based on various BRST constructions allowing to derive the Lagrangians for massive and massless higher spin fields on flat or constant curvature backgrounds of arbitrary dimensions.
