The Goldstone fields of interacting higher spin field theory on AdS(4)
Abstract
Description
A higher spin field theory on AdS(4) possesses a conformal field theory on the boundary R(3) which can be identified with the critical O(N) sigma model of O(N) invariant fields only. The notions of quasiprimary and secondary fields can be carried over to the AdS theory. If de Donder's gauge is applied, the traceless part of the higher spin field on AdS(4) is quasiprimary and the Goldstone fields are quasiprimary fields to leading order, too. Those fields corresponding to the Goldstone fields in the critical O(N) sigma model are odd rank symmetric tensor currents which vanish in the free field limit.
