DIVERGENCE OF THE EFFECTIVE ACTION OF FREE MASSLESS SPIN-3 THEORY IN ANTI-DE-SITTER SPACE // Tomsk State Pedagogical University Bulletin. 2011. Issue 8 (110). P. 57-59

In this work we investigate the structure of the effective action for a simplest model of the higher spin fields, free massless spin-3 field theory in anti-de Sitter space. We calculate the divergence of the effective action in the one-loop approximation, which in 4-dimensional space can be reduced to finding De Witt’s coefficients.

ON MASSIVE SPIN 3/2 INTERACTIONS IN FRAME-LIKE FORMALISM // Tomsk State Pedagogical University Bulletin. 2014. Issue 12 (153). P. 228-231

In this paper we consider massive spin 3/2 field and study its gravitational interaction. We use frame-like formulation for higher spin fields (s ≥ 3/2) in terms of gauge invariant field strengths. It is shown that as for massless higher spin field the gravitational interaction for massive spin 3/2 field can be constructed as strength deformation procedure.
