A Comment on Continuous Spin Representations of the Poincar\'e Group and Perturbative String Theory
Abstract
We make a simple observation that the massless continuous spin representations of the Poincar\'e group are not present in perturbative string theory constructions. This represents one of the very few model-independent low-energy consequences of these models.
