A comment on bosonization in d ≥ 2 dimensions

We discuss recent results on bosonization in d ≥ 2 space-time dimensions by giving a very simple derivation for the bosonic representation of the original free fermionic model both in the abelian and non-abelian cases. We carefully analyse the issue of symmetries in the resulting bosonic model as well as the recipes for bosonization of fermion currents.
