Chiral anomaly from the Fokker-Planck formalism

Creators

Description

We show how chiral anomalies arise in the Fokker-Planck formulation of stochastic quantization. Starting from a noise correlation function which is non-local in real space-time, a gauge invariantly regularized Fokker-Planck Hamiltonian is derived and used to compute the anomaly. (orig.)
