$CPT$ groups of higher spin fields are defined in the framework of automorphism groups of Clifford algebras associated with the complex representations of the proper orthochronous Lorentz group. Higher spin fields are understood as the fields on the Poincar{e} group which describe orientable (extended) objects. A general method for construction of $CPT$ groups of the fields of any spin is given. $CPT$ groups of the fields of spin-1/2, spin-1 and spin-3/2 are considered in detail. $CPT$ groups of the fields of tensor type are discussed. It is shown that tensor fields correspond to particles of the same spin with different masses.

In contrast to Hamiltonian perturbation theory which changes the time evolution, spacelike deformations proceed by changing the translations (momentum operators). The free Maxwell theory is only the first member of an infinite family of spacelike deformations of the complex massless Klein-Gordon quantum field into fields of higher helicity. A similar but simpler instance of spacelike deformation allows to increase the mass of scalar fields.
We describe how to define observables analogous to quantum fields for the semicontinuous limit recently introduced by Jones in the study of unitary representations of Thompsons groups $F$ and $T$. We find that, in terms of correlation functions of these fields, one can deduce quantities resembling the conformal data, i.e., primary fields, scaling dimensions, and the operator product expansion. Examples coming from quantum spin systems and anyon chains built on the trivalent category $mathit{SO}(3)_q$ are studied.
In generic conformal field theories with $W_3$ symmetry, we identify a primary field $sigma$ with rational Kac indices, which produces the full $mathbb{Z}_3$ charged and neutral sectors by the fusion processes $sigma times sigma$ and $sigma times sigma^*$, respectively. In this sense, this field generalises the $mathbb{Z}_3$ fundamental spin field of the three-state Potts model. Among the degenerate fields produced by these fusions, we single out a `parafermion field $psi$ and an `energy field $varepsilon$. In analogy with the Virasoro case, the exact curves for conformal dimensions $(h_sigma,h_psi)$ and $(h_sigma,h_varepsilon)$ are expected to give close estimates for the unitarity bounds in the conformal bootstrap analysis.
$CPT$ groups for spinor fields in de Sitter and anti-de Sitter spaces are defined in the framework of automorphism groups of Clifford algebras. It is shown that de Sitter spaces with mutually opposite signatures correspond to Clifford algebras with different algebraic structure that induces an essential difference of $CPT$ groups associated with these spaces. $CPT$ groups for charged particles are considered with respect to phase factors on the various spinor spaces related with real subalgebras of the simple Clifford algebra over the complex field (Dirac algebra). It is shown that $CPT$ groups for neutral particles which admit particle-antiparticle interchange and $CPT$ groups for truly neutral particles are described within semisimple Clifford algebras with quaternionic and real division rings, respectively. A difference between bosonic and fermionic $CPT$ groups is discussed.
Higgs fields are attributes of classical gauge theory on a principal bundle $Pto X$ whose structure Lie group $G$ if is reducible to a closed subgroup $H$. They are represented by sections of the quotient bundle $P/Hto X$. A problem lies in description of matter fields with an exact symmetry group $H$. They are represented by sections of a composite bundle which is associated to an $H$-principal bundle $Pto P/H$. It is essential that they admit an action of a gauge group $G$.
