We study localization of bulk fermions on a string-like defect with theexponentially decreasing warp factor in six dimensions with inclusion of U(1)gauge background from the viewpoint of field theory, and give the conditionsunder which localized spin 1/2 and 3/2 fermions can be obtained.Comment: Latex, 13 pages; V2: two references added; v3: 14 pages with some changes; v4: two references (wrongly deleted in the 3nd version) added Latex, 14 pages, accepted by JHEP; V5: published versio
