Light-cone gauge massive and partially-massless fields in AdS(4)
R.R. Metsaev
Abstract
Using light-cone gauge approach, bosonic and fermionic massive and partially-massless fields in AdS(4) space are considered. For such fields, light-cone gauge action is presented. Considering the massive and partially-massless fields in helicity basis and CFT adapted basis, two simple representations of spin operators entering the light-cone gauge action are discussed. The simple representations for the spin operators are obtained by using bosonic spinor-like oscillators. The bosonic spinor-like oscillators allow also us to treat the bosonic and fermionic fields on an equal footing.
