Abstract
Group-theoretic arguments are used to determine the dependence of two-point correlators of quark bilinears on the current quark masses. The leading difference between and correlators is found to be of order times a U(1)-violating correlator. These general arguments are consistent with Schaefer's observation that if U(1) violation persists to high enough temperatures then the strange can be lighter than the non-strange one.
