The inclusion of electromagnetism in a low energy effective theory is worth further study in view of the present high precision experiments (muon g-2, pi_0->2 gamma, tau decays, etc.). In particular in many applications of chiral…
We derive the O(p6) Chiral Perturbation Theory Lagrangian in the massless quark limit for a class of gravity dual models of Quantum Chromodynamics with the chiral symmetry broken through boundary conditions. The odd O(p6) couplings are…
