Flavor-nonsinglet axial Ward identity with equal quark masses
ID: flavor-nonsinglet-axial-ward-identity-with-equal-quark-masses
For the Dirac equation with two equal quark masses , the equations for and give the divergence of the nonsinglet axial current as . The color chiral anomaly is absent in this nonsinglet identity because the quark flavor generator is traceless. Equivalently, the mass term in the Hamiltonian is , and the nonsinglet axial charge algebra of quark densities gives .
