Dynamical chiral symmetry breaking is described within the linear sigma model of QCD coupled to quarks. The main technical tool used for this intrinsically non--perturbative problem is an exact renormalization group equation for the quantum…
The symmetry breaking pattern of QCD features two seemingly disconnected phenomena: the spontaneous breakdown of the Z(3) center symmetry in the deconfinement transition of pure-gauge QCD, and the spontaneous breaking of chiral…
The nonlocal version of the SU(2)xSU(2) symmetric four-quark interaction of the NJL type is considered. Each of the quark lines contains the form factors. These form factors remove the ultraviolet divergences in quark loops. The additional…
We use supersymmetric chiral dynamics perturbed by anomaly-mediated supersymmetry breaking to obtain a high-quality, composite axion that solves the strong CP problem. The strong dynamics arises from a supersymmetric SU(10) chiral gauge…

Higher order quark effective interactions are found for SU(2) flavor by departing from a non local quark-quark interaction. By integrating out a component of the quark field, the determinant is expanded in chirally symmetric and symmetry…
We compute the O(1/M,m_s) heavy quark and SU(3) corrections to B_s -> D_s e nu form factors. In the limit of vanishing light quark mass, B_s -> D_s e nu form factors are given in terms of the the B -> D e nu form factors, the leading order…

The $H^*H\pi$ form factor for H = B and D mesons is evaluated in a QCD sum rule calculation. We study the Borel sum rule for the three point function of two pseudoscalar and one vector meson currents up to order four in the operator product…
We first note the peculiar property of the pion as the pseudoscalar particle, which play the essential role in realizing the basic properties of the nuclear matter such as the density/energy saturations. Then, we introduce the notion of…
The SU(3) octet SS-PP correlator and the difference of the singlet and octet scalar correlators are computed within Resonance Chiral Theory. The calculation is carried on up to the one-loop level, i.e., up to next-to-leading order in the…
We derive a $\Lambda \Lambda$ potential from a chiral constituent quark model that has been successful in describing one, two and three nonstrange baryon systems. The resulting interaction at low energy is attractive at all distances due to…
