Light-cone gauge approach to arbitrary spin fields, currents, and shadows

Understand

Totally symmetric arbitrary spin fields in AdS space, conformal fields, conformal currents, and shadow fields in flat space are studied.

• Light-cone formulation for such fields, currents, and shadows is obtained.
• Use of the Poincare parametrization of AdS space allows us to treat fields in flat and AdS spaces on equal footing.
• Light-cone gauge realization of relativistic symmetries for fields, currents, and shadows is also obtained.
