Causal Propagation of Spinning Fields

Luca Fabbri, Bologna University
Abstract: 

We consider the problem of the causal propagation of spinning fields, and how for these fields the spin-torsion interaction can cause problems; these problems may be acausal propagation or failure to propagate, or even loss of constraints needed to provide the correct number of degrees of freedom for the field: we discuss a few examples.
