摘要
It is shown that the path-integral measure for gauge-invariant fermion theories is not invariant under the γ5 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. © 1979 The American Physical Society."
