Abstract

We construct Carrollian higher spin field theories by reducing the bosonic Fronsdal theories in flat spacetime to future null infinity. We extend the Poincar\'e fluxes to quantum flux operators which generate Carrollian diffeomorphism, namely supertranslation and superrotation. These flux operators form a closed symmetry algebra once including a helicity flux operator which follows from higher spin super-duality transformation. The super-duality transformation is an angle-dependent transformation at future null infinity which generalizes the usual electro-magnetic duality transformation. The results agree with the lower spin cases when restricting to $s=0,1,2$.<br />Comment: 48 pages, 2 figures
