contents We demonstrate that Dirac fermions in 2+1 dimensions, coupled to Abelian gauge fields in multiply-connected regions, exhibit a parity anomaly that directly manifests as Aharonov-Bohm (AB) type topological phases. Using the Fujikawa method, we show that this anomaly reproduces both the AB phase and the spin-dependent Aharonov-Casher (AC) phase. We explicitly calculate the induced topological currents, establishing that their characteristic divergence-free form provides a direct signature of this parity-anomalous topological phase.
