We develop a technique for the construction of random fields on algebraic structures. We deal with two general situations: random fields on homogeneous spaces of a compact group and in the spin-line bundles of the 2-sphere. In particular,…
The mutual compatibility of the dynamical equations and constraints describing a massive particle of arbitrary spin, though essential for consistency, is generically lost in the presence of interactions. The conventional Lagrangian approach…
We construct a Lagrangian that describes the dynamics of a six-dimensional free infinite (continuous) spin field in $6D$ Minkowski space. The Lagrangian is formulated in the framework of the BRST approach to higher spin field theory and is…

We explore a hidden possibility of BRST approach to higher spin field theory to obtain a consistent Lagrangian for massive spin-3/2 field in Einstein space. Also, we prove that in the space under consideration the propagation of spin-3/2…
In the present paper we consider a theory of gravity in which not only curvature but also torsion is explicitly present in the Lagrangian, both with their own coupling constant. In particular, we discuss the couplings to Dirac fields and…
The paths on the {\bf R$^3$} real Euclidean manifold are defined as 2-dimensional simplicial strips; points are replaced by 2-simplexes and the orbits of the action of a one discrete-parameter group on the base manifold becomes a convex…
We analyze the consistency of the Chiral Lagrangian approach to the description of the spin 3/2 interacting theory. We argue that to lowest order in the 1/m expansion, the formalism leads to the appropriated constraints and the theory is…
