A Comment on the Higher-Spin Gauge Models

Abstract

We examine the higher-spin gauge models which are free on-shell and whose cubic vertex is BRST-exact. We show that these are free off-shell as well as on-shell. The key equation for this relates the derivative of the total deformed action S(g) with respect to the deformation parameter g to an S(g)-exact term.
