متن کاملChiral Anomalies in Field Theories
The role of the contribution from the fermion mass term in the axial vector Ward identity in generating the U(1) axial anomaly, both local and global, is elucidated. Gauge invariance requires the fermion to decouple from the gauge field if it is very heavy. This identifies the Adler-Bell-Jackiw (ABJ) anomaly with the asymptotic limit of the sign reversed mass term. In an instanton background, t...
متن کاملAnomalies in orbifold field theories
We study the constraints on models with extra dimensions arising from local anomaly cancellation. We consider a five-dimensional field theory with a U(1) gauge field and a charged fermion, compactified on the orbifold S/(Z2 × Z2). We show that, even if the orbifold projections remove both fermionic zero modes, there are gauge anomalies localized at the fixed points. Anomalies naively cancel aft...
متن کاملOn Anomalies in Orbifold Theories
We study the issue of gauge invariance in five-dimensional theories compactified on an orbifold S/(Z2×Z2) in the presence of an external U(1) gauge field. From the fourdimensional point of view the theory contains a tower of Kaluza-Klein Dirac fermions with chiral couplings and it looks anomalous at the quantum level. We show that this “anomaly” is cancelled by a topological Chern-Simons term w...
متن کاملChiral anomalies in noncommutative YM theories
Using cohomological methods we discuss several issues related to chiral anomalies in noncommutative U(N) YM theories in any even dimension. We show that for each dimension there is only one solution of the WZ consistency condition and that there cannot be any reducible anomaly, nor any mixed anomaly when the gauge group is a product group. We also clarify some puzzling aspects of the issue of t...
