Conformal invariance of partially massless higher spins

Abstract

We show that there exist conformally invariant theories for all spins in d=4 de Sitter space, namely the partially massless models with higher derivative gauge invariance under a scalar gauge parameter. This extends the catalog from the two known gauge models—Maxwell and partially massless spin 2—to all spins.
