Review text

A careful study of problems associated on the one hand with renormalizations and on the other with symmetries conservation, their breaking, the Ward identities behavior, the Schwinger terms contributions, and quantum anomalies is performed. Subjects which are raised in the paper are: i) mass dependence of quantum anomalies; ii) distinction between chiral and chiral limit anomalies; iii) relations between the Schwinger terms contributions and quantum anomalies. Using the self-consistent renormalization technique it is shown that quantum anomalies reveal themselves either as an oversubtraction effect for a non-chiral case and for the symmetric and nonsymmetric chiral limits (in these cases the Schwinger terms contributions are zero) or as nonzero Schwinger terms for the chiral case. The investigations show that canonically non-conserved vector and axial-vector currents can have mass-dependend anomalies. It is shown that in the chiral case `left-hand vector' can be conserved and hence it can be more fundamental than vector or axial-vector currents. This may give some insight into why just the left-handed neutrino exists in nature. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0989.00035].
