Abstract
- We revisit the computation of the phase of the Dirac fermion scattering operator in external gauge fields. The computation is through a parallel transport along the path of time evolution operators. The novelty of the present paper compared with the earlier geometric approach by Langmann and Mickelsson (J Math Phys 37(8):3933-3953, ) is that we can avoid the somewhat arbitrary choice in the regularization of the time evolution for intermediate times using a natural choice of the connection form on the space of appropriate unitary operators.
