Deskripsi
Abstract We propose a unified BRST formulation of general massless fermionic fields of arbitrary mixed-symmetry type in d-dimensional Minkowski space. Depending on the value of the real parameter the system describes either helicity fields or continuous spin fields. Starting with the unified formulation we derive a number of equivalent descriptions including the triplet formulation, Fang-Fronsdal-Labastida formulation, light-cone formulation and discuss the unfolded formulation.
