We show that the equivalence of a chiral U(1) transformation with a change in θ is independent of the fate of the U(1) boson, being a consequence of the translational invariance. Assuming that there is no accidental degeneracy the U(1) problem is solved.

Abstract

We show that the equivalence of a chiral U(1) transformation with a change in θ is independent of the fate of the U(1) boson, being a consequence of the translational invariance. Assuming that there is no accidental degeneracy the U(1) problem is solved.
