We consider the minimal interacting theory of a single tower of spin j=0,2,4,... massless Fronsdal fields in flat space for which consistent covariant cubic interaction vertices are known. We address the question of constraints on possible quartic interaction vertices imposed by the condition of on-shell gauge invariance of the tree-level four-point scattering amplitudes involving three spin 0 and one spin j particle. We find that these constraints admit a local solution for quartic 000j interaction term in the action only for j=2 and j=4. We determine the non-local terms in four-vertices required in the case of spin j greater than 4 and show that these non-localities can be interpreted as a result of integrating out a tower of auxiliary ghost-like massless higher spin fields in an extended theory with a local action. We also consider the conformal off-shell extension of the Einstein theory and show that its perturbative expansion is the same as of the the non-local action resulting from integrating out the trace of the graviton field from the Einstein action. Motivated by this example, we conjecture the existence of a similar conformal off-shell extension of a massless higher spin theory that may be related to the above extended theory and may have the same infinite-dimensional symmetry as the conformal higher spin theory and thus may lead to a trivial S matrix.

We give an explicit superspace construction of higher spin conserved supercurrents built out of $4D,mathcal{N}=1$ massless supermultiplets of arbitrary spin. These supercurrents are gauge invariant and generate a large class of cubic interactions bet
ween a massless supermultiplet with superspin $Y_1=s_1+1/2$ and two massless supermultiplets of arbitrary superspin $Y_2$. These interactions are possible only for $s_1geq 2Y_2$. At the equality, the supercurrent acquires its simplest form and defines the supersymmetric, higher spin extension of the linearized Bel-Robinson tensor.
In this work we classify homogeneous solutions to the Noether procedure in (A)dS for an arbitrary number of external legs and in general dimensions. We also give a review of the corresponding flat space classification and its relation with the (A)dS
result presented here. The role of dimensional dependent identities is also investigated.
We compute spinning four point functions in the quasi-fermionic three dimensional conformal field theory with slightly broken higher spin symmetry at finite tHooft coupling. More concretely, we obtain a formula for $langle j_s j_{tilde{0}} j_{tilde{0
}} j_{tilde{0}} rangle$, where $j_s$ is a higher spin current and $j_{tilde{0}}$ is the scalar single trace operator. Our procedure consists in writing a plausible ansatz in Mellin space and using crossing, pseudo-conservation and Regge boundedness to fix all undetermined coefficients. Our method can potentially be generalised to compute all spinning four point functions in these theories.
We review model independent arguments showing that massless particles interacting with gravity in a Minkowski background space can have at most spin two. These arguments include a classic theorem due to Weinberg, as well as a more recent extension of
the Weinberg-Witten theorem. A puzzle arising from an apparent counterexample to these theorems is examined and resolved.
We derive the component Lagrangian for the free $N$-extended on-shell massless higher spin supermultiplets in four-dimensional anti-de Sitter space. The construction is based on frame-like description of massless integer and half-integer higher spin
fields. The massless supermultiplets are formulated for $Nleq 4k,$ where $k$ is a maximal integer or half-integer spin in the multiplet. The supertransformations that leave the Lagrangian invariant are found and it is shown that their algebra is closed on-shell.
