Generalized Symmetries of Massless Free Fields on Minkowski Space

A complete and explicit classification of generalized, or local, symmetries of massless free fields of spin s ≥ 1/2 is carried out. Up to equivalence, these are found to consists of the conformal symmetries and their duals, new chiral symmetries of order 2s, and their higher-order extensions obtaine...
