Abstract
Conformal totally symmetric arbitrary spin fermionic fields propagating in the flat space-time of even dimension greater than or equal to four are investigated. First-derivative metric-like formulation involving Fang-Fronsdal kinetic operator for such fields is developed. Gauge invariant Lagrangian and the corresponding gauge transformations are obtained. Gauge symmetries of the Lagrangian are realized by using auxiliary fields and the Stueckelberg fields. Realization of conformal algebra symmetries on the space of conformal gauge fermionic fields is obtained. The on-shell degrees of freedom of the fermionic arbitrary spin conformal fields are also studied.
