Higher spin supercurrents in anti-de Sitter space

Abstract We propose higher spin supercurrent multiplets for N=1 $$ \mathcal{N}=1 $$ supersymmetric field theories in four-dimensional anti-de Sitter space (AdS). Their explicit realisations are derived for various supersymmetric theories, including a model of N massive chiral scalar superfields with...

Description
Summary:Abstract We propose higher spin supercurrent multiplets for N=1 $$ \mathcal{N}=1 $$ supersymmetric field theories in four-dimensional anti-de Sitter space (AdS). Their explicit realisations are derived for various supersymmetric theories, including a model of N massive chiral scalar superfields with an arbitrary mass matrix. We also present new off-shell gauge formulations for the massless N=1 $$ \mathcal{N}=1 $$ supersymmetric multiplet of integer superspin s in AdS, where s = 2, 3, . . . , as well as for the massless gravitino multiplet (superspin s = 1) which requires special consideration.
