Abstract: | It is shown forSU(N) andU(1) gauge groups that periodic spatial boundary conditions, as commonly used in lattice simulations, are not possible in the charged sectors of a local gauge theory. For charge-conjugate (C-)periodic boundary conditions the effective gauge action of fermions is derived. For nonzero chemical potential, the breakdown of translational invariance induced by the breakdown ofC symmetry is discussed. If translational invariance is abandoned, (anti)periodic spatial b.c. for fermions and for theSU(3) gauge field andC-periodic b.c. for theU(1) gauge field can be used. |
