Planar solutions of higher-spin theory. Part I. Free field level

Abstract

Abstract Many black hole solutions of General Relativity are known to be linearly exact. This opens a way to study them in gauge theories that apart from gravity contain fields of higher spin s > 2. Starting with a black brane in AdS4 we find its free field higher- spin generalization that respects static and planar symmetry for all bosonic gauge fields s ≥ 0. The solution is found for both the higher-spin curvatures and potentials in the form suitable for further non-linear analysis and satisfies the multi copy relation.
