Okubo, Susumu; Zhang, Huazhong

Explicit expression of global gauge anomaly coefficients A(..omega..) of locally anomaly-free representation ..omega.. of classical groups SU(N), Sp(2N) and SO(N) have been calculated in even dimensional space-time by uses of group theory and homotopy theory. As a by-product, we will prove some modular relations involving the n-th Kynkin indices Q/sub n/(..omega..) of these groups. 11 refs.
