摘要
To avoid the defects of higher-spin interaction theory, the field-dependent invariant representation (the 'dynamical' representation) of the Poincare algebra is considered as a dynamical principle. A general 'dynamical' representation for a single elementary particle of arbitrary spin in the presence of a plane-wave field is constructed and the corresponding forms of the higher-spin interaction terms found. The properties of relativistically invariant first-order higher-spin equations with the 'dynamical' interaction are examined. It is shown that the Rarita-Schwinger spin-3/2 equation with the 'dynamical' interaction is causal and free from algebraic inconsistencies, As distinct from the first-order higher-spin relativistic equations with the minimal coupling, there exist the Klein-Gordon divisors for the first-order equations with the non-minimal, 'dynamical' interaction, and the corresponding Klein-Gordon equations are causal.
