Gauge anomalies of finite groups
arXiv:2201.11801 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.105.105008
Abstract
We show how the theory of characters can be used to analyse an anomaly corresponding to chiral fermions carrying an arbitrary representation of a gauge group that is finite, but otherwise arbitrary. By way of example, we do this for some groups of relevance for the study of quark and lepton masses and mixings.
