BRST Lagrangian construction for spin-3/2 field in Einstein space

Abstract

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 field is hyperbolic and causal.
