Abstract

We give the component Lagrangian construction of the on-shell \(\mathcal{N} = 1\) massive higher spin supermultiplets in three dimensional (3D) anti de Sitter (\(AdS\)) space. The approach is based on the frame-like gauge invariant formulation, where massive higher spin fields are realized through a system of massless ones. We construct massive supermultiplets using a formulation of the massive fields in terms of the set of gauge invariant objects (curvatures) in the process of their consistent supersymmetric deformation.
