cancellation of gauge and gravitational anomalies by the variation of an antisymmetric tensor field, which singled out particular gauge groups in superstring theory.

In particle physics, Green-Schwarz mechanism refers to cancellation of gauge and gravitational anomalies by the variation of an antisymmetric tensor field, which singled out particular gauge groups in superstring theory. This meaning comes from Green (1984) in Physics Letters B.[1]
