Description
Using the grassman-number-integral representation of the vacuum overlap formula, it is shown that the symmetry of the auxiliary quantum fermion system in the overlap formalism induces exact chiral symmetry of the action of the type given by Luscher under the chiral transformation $δψ_n = γ_5(1-a D)ψ_n$ and $ δ\bar ψ_n = \bar ψ_n γ_5$. With this relation, we consider the connection between the covariant form of the anomaly discussed in the context of the overlap formula and the axial anomaly associated to the exact chiral symmetry in the action formalism. The covariant gauge current in the overlap formalism is translated to the action formalism and its explicit expression is obtained.
