For such field, we find light-cone gauge Lagrangian and realization of relativistic symmetries. We find a simple realization of spin operators entering our approach. Generalization of our results to the gauge invariant Lagrangian description is also described. We conjecture that, in the framework of AdS/CFT, the continuous-spin AdS field is dual to light-ray conformal operator. For some particular cases, our continuous-spin field leads to reducible models. We note two reducible models. The first model consists of massive scalar, massless vector, and partial continuous-spin field involving fields of all spins greater than one, while the second model consists of massive vector, massless spin-2 field, and partial continuous-spin field involving all fields of spins greater than two.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-03-25T17:51:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "light-cone continuous-spin field", "ads space", "partial continuous-spin field", "spins greater", "gauge invariant lagrangian description" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
