Chiral bosonization as a duality
- Department of Physics, McGill University, 3600 University Street, Montreal, Quebec, T3A 2T8 (CANADA)
We demonstrate that the technique of Abelian bosonization through duality transformations can be extended to gauging anomalous symmetries. The example of a Dirac fermion theory is first illustrated. This idea is then also applied to bosonize a chiral fermion by gauging its chiral phase symmetry. {copyright} {ital 1996 The American Physical Society.}
