Abstract

Truncating the low-lying modes of the lattice Dirac operator results in an emergence of the chiral-spin symmetry SU(2)CSSU(2)_{CS} and its flavor extension SU(2NF)SU(2N_F) in hadrons. These are symmetries of the quark - chromo-electric interaction and include chiral symmetries as subgroups. Hence the quark - chromo-magnetic interaction, which breaks both symmetries, is located at least predominantly in the near - zero modes. Using as a tool the expansion of propagators into eigenmodes of the Dirac operator we here analytically study effects of a gap in the eigenmode spectrum on baryon correlators. We find that both U(1)AU(1)_A and SU(2)L×SU(2)RSU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R emerge automatically if there is a gap around zero. Emergence of larger SU(2)CSSU(2)_{CS} and SU(4)SU(4) symmetries requires in addition a microscopical dynamical input about the higher-lying modes and their symmetry structure.
