Ordinary-derivative formulation of conformal totally symmetric arbitrary spin bosonic fields

Understand

Conformal totally symmetric arbitrary spin bosonic fields in flat space-time of even dimension greater than or equal to four are studied.

• Second-derivative (ordinary-derivative) formulation for such fields is developed.
• We obtain gauge invariant Lagrangian and the corresponding gauge transformations.
• Gauge symmetries are realized by involving the Stueckelberg and auxiliary fields.
