Abstract
Some aspects of chiral p-forms, in particular the obstruction that mak
es it hard to define covariant Green functions, are discussed. It is s
hown that a proposed resolution involving an infinite set of gauge fie
lds can be made mathematically rigorous in the classical case. We also
give a brief demonstration of species doubling for chiral bosons.
