Twistor description of spinning particles in AdS

Abstract The two-twistor formulation of particle mechanics in D-dimensional anti-de Sitter space for D = 4, 5, 7, which linearises invariance under the AdS isometry group Sp(4; K $$ \mathbb{K} $$) for K=ℝ,ℂ,ℍ $$ \mathbb{K}=\mathbb{R},\mathbb{C},\mathrm{\mathbb{H}} $$, is generalized to the massless...
