Abstract—We consider a model of electrodynamics with two types of interaction, the vector (frame0(A)) and
axial vector (frame1(5B)) interactions, i.e., with two types of vector gauge fields, which corresponds to the
local nature of the complete massless-fermion symmetry group U(1) UA(1). We present a phenomenological
model with spontaneous symmetry breaking through which the fermion and the axial vector field B acquire
masses. Based on an approximate solution of the Dyson equation for the fermion mass operator, we demon-
strate the phenomenon of dynamical chiral symmetry breaking when the field B has mass. We show the pos-
sibility of eliminating the axial anomalies in the model under consideration when introducing other types of
fermions (quarks) within the standard-model fermion generations. We consider the polarization operator for the
field B and the procedure for removing divergences when calculating it. We demonstrate the emergence of a
mass pole in the propagator of the particles that correspond to the field B when chiral symmetry is broken and
consider the problems of regularizing closed fermion loops with axial vector vertices in connection with chiral
symmetry breaking. © 2004 MAIK “Nauka/Interperiodica”.
