Path-Integral Measure for Gauge-Invariant Fermion Theories
Abstract
It is shown that the path-integral measure for gauge-invariant fermion theories is not invariant under the ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_{5}$ transformation and the Jacobian gives rise to an extra phase factor corresponding to the Adler-Bell-Jackiw anomaly. The derivation of "anomalous" Ward-Takahashi identities by means of the variational derivative can thus be made consistent in the path-integral formalism.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
