CP non-invariance from scaling violations

Abstract

In the framework of a renormalizable quantum field theory and taking the example of neutral kaons, CP violation is shown to be a dynamical consequence of the anomalous scaling of the fields; its connection to the mass splitting is exhibited. It is also shown to be compatible with the normality condition [M,M^\dagger]=0 for the renormalized mass matrix.

several mistakes corrected; the result now exhibits a dependence on the mass splitting
