Zusammenfassung:We construct the consistent interactions among the Abelian gauge fields and various higher derivative matter fields within the framework of the Hamiltonian BRST formalism. To achieve this, we mainly investigate a set of iterative equations with respect to the free model under study by using the cohomological technique. Concretely, it is shown that the second-order and the other higher-order deformations of the BRST charge are supposed to be zero. While for the BRST-invariant Hamiltonian, the third-order as well as the corresponding higher-order deformation terms vanish completely for scalar fields. In special, the deformation of BRST-invariant Hamiltonian for the spinor field model terminates at order one as we can imagine. Furthermore, after plugging these deformed quantities into the original Hamiltonian and exploiting the ghost-independent terms, we recover the usual local gauge symmetries of the resulting interacting theory which can be interpreted as the gaugings of the rigid invariance of the uncoupled system.
