Abstract

Abstract Using recent results on fermionic determinants in two-dimensional non-abelian background fields we give a very simple path integral demonstration of the equivalence between the free Fermi theory in this background and a corresponding chiral Bose theory with Wess-Zumino action. The result is compared to previously proposed bosonization rules and certain limitations to the general validity of these are found.
