Some Lessons from the Schwinger Model
Abstract
I shall recall a number of solutions to the Schwinger model in different gauges, having different boundary conditions and using different quantization surfaces. I shall discuss various properties of these solutions emphasizing the degrees of freedom necessary to represent the solution, the way the operator products are defined and the effects these features have on the chiral condensate.
