We compute the functional determinant for a Dirac operator in the presence of an Abelian gauge field on a bidimensional disk, under global boundary conditions of the type introduced by Atiyah{endash}Patodi{endash}Singer. We also discuss the connection between our result and the index theorem. {copyright} {ital 1998 American Institute of Physics.}
