      Dynamics of the nonlinear three-component angular momentum vector is analyzed within the Heisenberg picture. It is proved that one can obtain a linear system by proper embedding in a larger linear space \(U(2j+1)\) Lie algebra. The linearization of the problem enables to define linear dynamics of parameters, isomorphic to the linear operator dynamics of Lie group parameters.
