Abstract
We consider the generalized chiral $QED_2$ on $S^1$ with a $U(1)$ gauge field coupled with different charges to both chiral components of a fermionic field. Using the adiabatic approximation we calculate the Berry phase and the corresponding ${\rm U}(1)$ connection and curvature for the vacuum and many particle Fock states. We show that the nonvanishing vacuum Berry phase is associated with a projective representation of the local gauge symmetry group and contributes to the effective action of the model.
