Chiral Anomaly for a New Class of Lattice Dirac Operators
  A new class of lattice Dirac operators which satisfy the index theorem have been recently proposed on the basis of the algebraic relation $\gamma_{5}(\gamma_{5}D) + (\gamma_{5}D)\gamma_{5} = 2a^{2k+1}(\gamma_{5}D)^{2k+2}$. Here $k$ stands for a non-negative integer and $k=0$ corresponds to the ordinary Ginsparg-Wilson relation. We analyze the chiral anomaly and index theorem for all these Dirac operators in an explicit elementary manner. We show that the coefficient of anomaly is independent of a small variation in the parameters $r$ and $m_{0}$, which characterize these Dirac operators, and the correct chiral anomaly is obtained in the (naive) continuum limit $a\to 0$.
