A brief introduction to higher-spin gauge theory
We would like to explain the basic mechanisms underlying fully interacting higher-spin theory, aiming at giving a flavor of Vasiliev’s equations. We will start from the linearised theory, explain the Fradkin-Vasiliev procedure for cubic interactions and arrive at Vasiliev’s equations if time allows.
