Gauge Fields and Singletons of
We show that -forms on describe both singletons and massless
particles. On the -dimensional boundary the singleton -form Lagrangian
reduces to the conformally invariant functional . All the
representations, singletons as well as massless, are zero center modules and
involve a vacuum mode. Two- and three-form singleton fields are required by
supersymmetry in AdS and AdS supergravity respectively.Comment: tex file, 13 page
On Tensorial Spaces and BCFW Recursion Relations for Higher Spin Fields
In this short review we briefly consider two topics in the higher spin gauge
theory: the method of "tensorial (super) spaces" and application of BCFW
recursion relations to higher spin fields.Comment: 26 pages, Invited Review, discussion improved, references adde
Analyzing eta' photoproduction data on the proton at energies of 1.5--2.3 GeV
The recent high-precision data for the reaction at
photon energies in the range 1.5--2.3 GeV obtained by the CLAS collaboration at
the Jefferson Laboratory have been analyzed within an extended version of the
photoproduction model developed previously by the authors based on a
relativistic meson-exchange model of hadronic interactions [Phys. Rev. C
\textbf{69}, 065212 (2004)]. The photoproduction can be described quite
well over the entire energy range of available data by considering ,
, , and resonances, in addition to the -channel
mesonic currents. The observed angular distribution is due to the interference
between the -channel and the nucleon - and -channel resonance
contributions. The resonances are required to reproduce some of the
details of the measured angular distribution. For the resonances considered,
our analysis yields mass values compatible with those advocated by the Particle
Data Group. We emphasize, however, that cross-section data alone are unable to
pin down the resonance parameters and it is shown that the beam and/or target
asymmetries impose more stringent constraints on these parameter values. It is
found that the nucleonic current is relatively small and that the
coupling constant is not expected to be much larger than 2.Comment: Revised version based on revised (finalized) CLAS data (14 pages, 10

Conformal Field Theory Correlators from Classical Scalar Field Theory on
We use the correspondence between scalar field theory on and a
conformal field theory on to calculate the 3- and 4-point functions of
the latter. The classical scalar field theory action is evaluated at tree
level.Comment: 9 pages, LaTeX2e with amsmath, amsfonts packages, section 2

On Lagrangian formulations for arbitrary bosonic HS fields on Minkowski backgrounds
We review the details of unconstrained Lagrangian formulations for Bose
particles propagated on an arbitrary dimensional flat space-time and described
by the unitary irreducible integer higher-spin representations of the Poincare
group subject to Young tableaux with rows. The procedure
is based on the construction of Verma modules and finding auxiliary oscillator
realizations for the symplectic algebra which encodes the second-class
operator constraints subsystem in the HS symmetry algebra. Application of an
universal BRST approach reproduces gauge-invariant Lagrangians with reducible
gauge symmetries describing the free dynamics of both massless and massive
bosonic fields of any spin with appropriate number of auxiliary fields.Comment: 8 pages, no figures, extended Contribution to the Proceedings of the
