Global anomalies and the gauge-boson equivalence theorem

Abstract

We discuss the various resolutions which have been suggested in the literature for the way that the equivalence theorem can be satisfied in theories with global anomalies. We provide a model-independent proof for the resolution originally suggested in the context of a toy model by Kilgore.
