Cancellation of quantum mechanical higher loop contributions to the gravitational chiral anomaly

High Energy Physics - Theory 2011-09-09 v1

Abstract

We give an explicit demonstration, using the rigorous Feynman rules developed in~\01\0^{1}, that the regularized trace \trγ5eβ\Dslash2\tr \gamma_5 e^{-\beta \Dslash^2} for the gravitational chiral anomaly expressed as an appropriate quantum mechanical path integral is β\beta-independent up to two-loop level. Identities and diagrammatic notations are developed to facilitate rapid evaluation of graphs given by these rules.
