Second Order Formalism for Fermions
Abstract
A new formulation of fermions based on a second order action is proposed. An analysis of the U(1) anomaly allows us to test the validity of the formalism at the quantum level. This formulation gives a new perpective to the introduction of parity non-invariant interactions.
