Twistor approach to higher-spin theories and matrix model

We discuss recent endeavours in connecting twistor theory to higher-spin theories and the IKKT- matrix model. Starting with a brief review on higher-spin algebra hs in four-dimensional target space, we elucidate how higher-spin symmetry can be encoded in hs-valued sections/holomorphic differential forms on (non-commutative) twistor space. This provides an efficient way to construct local higher-spin theories in spacetime from some actions on (non-commutative) twistor space. Remarkably, some higher-spin theories obtained within the framework of twistor theory can have non-trivial scattering amplitudes in flat space.
