Conformal supergravity
ES Fradkin, AA Tseytlin - Physics Reports, 1985 - Elsevier
We give a review of conformal supergravity considered as a candidate for a fundamental
theory describing physics at Planck distances. Conformal supergravities are supersymmetric …

On the gravitational interaction of massless higher-spin fields
ES Fradkin, MA Vasiliev - Physics Letters B, 1987 - Elsevier
We show that, despite a widespread belief, the gravitational interaction of massless higher-
spin fields (s> 2) does exist at least in the first nontrivial order. The principal novel feature of …

Snowmass white paper: higher spin gravity and higher spin symmetry
Higher Spin Gravity refers to extensions of gravity including at least one field of spin greater
than two. These extensions are expected to provide manageable models of quantum gravity …
