Odd-momentum fermionic Bogoliubov angle

ID: odd-momentum-fermionic-bogoliubov-angle

For a spinless Bogoliubov transformation , consistency of the doubled Nambu spinor requires and . Thus choose modulo . The cross anticommutator from the first-row formulas is ; a nontrivial even angle would violate the canonical anticommutation relations. A self-paired zero mode must instead have vanishing mixing in this convention. Real-angle unitarity within each two-by-two block alone does not enforce consistency between duplicated momentum labels.
