As the first in a series of systematic work on dense hadronic matter, we study the properties of the pion in dense medium using Skyrme's effective Lagrangian as a unified theory of the hadronic interactions applicable in the large $N_c$…
Topologically stable non-Abelian sine-Gordon solitons have been found recently in the $U(N)$ chiral Lagrangian and a $U(N)$ gauge theory with two $N$ by $N$ complex scalar fields coupled to each other. We construct the effective theory on a…
We study the baryon in holographic QCD with $D4/D8/\bar{D8}$ multi-$D$ brane system. In holographic QCD, the baryon appears as a topologically non-trivial chiral soliton in a four-dimensional effective theory of mesons. We call this…
We present a two-flavour linear sigma model with global chiral symmetry and vector and axial-vector mesons. We calculate pion-pion scattering lengths and the decay widths of scalar, vector, and axial-vector mesons. It is demonstrated that…
We consider string meson and string baryon models in the framework of the modified measure theory, the theory that does not use the determinant of the metric to construct the invariant volume element. As the outcome of this theory, the…
Chiral perturbation theory is utilized to construct the renormalized magnetic masses and decay constants of the meson octet at next-to-leading order. While the neutral pion mass decreases identically to two-flavor chiral perturbation…
We study Skyrmion dynamics in a (2+1)-dimensional Skyrme model. The system contains a dimensionless parameter alpha, with alpha=0 corresponding to the O(3) sigma-model. If two Skyrmions collide head-on, then they can either coalesce or…
A scalar field, $\eta({\bf r})$, is coupled to the skyrmion. Its classical value in the vacuum ("condensate") reduces to the pion decay constant, $f_{\pi}$, being thus proportional to the chiral condensate $<\bar{q} q>$. A quadratic…
We analyze the octet baryon masses and the pion/kaon--nucleon $\sigma$--terms in the framework of heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. We include {\it all} terms up-to-and-including quadratic order in the light quark masses, $m_q$. We…
We study cosmological solutions in the context of 4-dimensional low energy Heterotic M-theory with moving bulk branes. In particular we present non-trivial, analytic axion solutions generated by new symmetries of the full potential-free…
This lecture provides a pedagogical instruction to the basic concepts of the Skyrme model and its some applications. As the preliminary for understanding the Skyrme model, we first briefly explain the large $N_c$ expansion, chiral symmetry…
We derive a soft theorem for a massless scalar in an effective field theory with generic field content using the geometry of field space. This result extends the geometric soft theorem for scalar effective field theories by allowing the…
We perform a chiral extrapolation of the baryon octet and decuplet masses in a relativistic formulation of chiral perturbation theory. A partial summation is assumed as implied by the use of physical baryon and meson masses in the one-loop…
It is shown that the empirical rule that the masses of the stable mesons and baryons of the gamma-branch are integer multiples of the mass of the pi0 meson with a maximal deviation of 3.3% holds also for the meson and baryon resonances,…
By combining two different techniques to construct multi-soliton solutions of the (3+1)-dimensional Skyrme model, the generalized hedgehog and the rational map ansatz, we find multi-Skyrmion configurations in $AdS_{2}\times S_{2}$. We…
We explicitly relate effective meson-baryon Lagrangian models, chiral bags, and Skyrmions in the following way. First, effective Lagrangians are constructed in a manner consistent with an underlying large-N_c QCD. An infinite set of graphs…
We propose a chiral quark model including the $\omega$ and $\rho$ meson contributions in addition to the $\pi$ and $\sigma$ meson contributions. We show that the masses of the ground state baryons such as the nucleon, $\Lambda_c$ and…
The ground state configurations of the solution to Skyrme's topological soliton model for systems with baryon number larger than 1 are well approximated with rational map ans\"atze, without individual baryon coordinates. Here canonical…
The description of baryons as soliton solutions of effective meson theories for three flavor (up, down, strange) degrees of freedom is reviewed and the phenomenological implications are illuminated. In the collective approach the soliton…
An extended linear sigma model with mesons (q\bar{q} states) and baryons (qqq states) is presented. The model contains a low energy multiplet for every hadronic particle type, namely a scalar, a pseudoscalar, a vector, and an axialvector…
