Abstract

We quantize a generalized version of the Schwinger model, where the two chiral sectors couples with different strengths to theU(1) gauge field. Starting from a theory which includes a generalized Wess-Zumino term, we obtain the equal time commutation relation for physical fields, both the singular and non-singular cases are considered. The photon propagators are also computed in their gauge dependent and invariant versions.
