Higher Spins without (Anti-)de Sitter

Can the holographic principle be extended beyond the well-known AdS/CFT correspondence? During the last couple of years, there has been a substantial amount of research trying to find answers for this question. In this work, we provide a review of recent developments of three-dimensional theories of...

During the last couple of years, there has been a substantial amount of research trying to find answers for this question. In this work, we provide a review of recent developments of three-dimensional theories of gravity with higher spin symmetries. We focus in particular on a proposed holographic duality involving asymptotically flat spacetimes and higher spin extended bms 3 symmetries. In addition, we also discuss developments concerning relativistic and nonrelativistic higher spin algebras. As a special case, Carroll gravity will be discussed in detail.http://www.mdpi.com/2218-1997/4/1/20higher spinnon-anti-de sitterflat spaceholographynonrelativistic holography
