A note on higher-order vertices of higher-spin fields in flat and (A)dS space

2020 
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, analysing also the corresponding deformations of gauge symmetries. This builds upon the corresponding flat space classification [1], which we review and give its relation with the (A)dS result presented here. The role of dimensional dependent identities is studied in detail, which we find do not lead to new solutions for couplings involving more than three fields. For spins one and two our formalism recovers the Yang-Mills and Gravity examples.
