本文计算了六维A型（2，0）超共形量子场论的整体规范反常和引力反常，并对D型和E型理论提出了一个有效的公式。我们发现，异常包含的条款，不有助于本地异常，但全球异常的一致性是至关重要的。一个副结果是（2，0）理论的库仑分支上出现Hopf-Wess-Zumino项的直观图像。
A bstractWe compute the global gauge and gravitational anomalies of the A-type (2,0) superconformal quantum field theories in six dimensions, and conjecture a formula valid for the D- and E-type theories. We show that the anomaly contains terms that do not contribute to the local anomaly but that are crucial for the consistency of the global anomaly. A side result is an intuitive picture for the appearance of Hopf-Wess-Zumino terms on the Coulomb branch of the (2,0) theories.
