Quadratic Corrections to the Higher-Spin Equations by the Differential Homotopy Approach
Abstract
The recently proposed differential homotopy approach to the analysis of nonlinear higher spin theory is developed. The Ansatz is extended to the form applicable in the second order of the perturbation theory and general star-multiplication formulae are derived. The relation of the shifted homotopy and differential homotopy formalisms is worked out. Projectively-compact spin-local quadratic (anti)holomorphic vertices in the one-form sector of higher-spin equations are obtained within the differential homotopy formalism.
