Some technical tricks are employed to calculate the determinants of fluctuation operators of the path integrals. An intuitive and geometric argument is applied to overcome the complicated calculation on spin fields twisted by gauge fields.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2007-01-06T07:54:55.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "index theorem", "derivation", "supersymmetry", "spin fields", "special cases" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 742028, "adsabs": "2007math.ph...1018X" } } }
