    Classical double copy and higher-spin fields

    Full text link
    Kerr-Schild double copy is shown to extend naturally to all free symmetric gauge fields propagating on (A)dS(A)dS in any dimensions. Similarly to the standard lower-spin case, the higher-spin multicopy comes along with the zeroth, single and double copies. The mass-like term of the Fronsdal spin ss field equations fixed by gauge symmetry and the mass of the zeroth copy both appear to be remarkably fine tuned to fit the multicopy pattern forming a spectrum organized by higher-spin symmetry. On the black hole side this curious observation fills up the list of miraculous properties of the Kerr solution.Comment: 14 page
