The Khuri-Treiman formalism models the partial-wave expansion of a scattering amplitude as a sum of three individual truncated series, capturing the low-energy dynamics of the direct and cross channels. We cast this formalism into…
Roy's equations are used to check if scalar-isoscalar pi-pi amplitudes fitted to the ``up-flat'' and ``down-flat'' phase shift solutions fulfill crossing symmetry below 1 GeV. It is shown that the amplitude fitted to the ``down-flat''…
Systematic and careful studies are made on the properties of the IJ=00 $\pi\pi$ and $K\bar K$ coupled-channel system, using newly derived dispersion relations between the phase shifts and poles and cuts. The effects of nearby branch point…
A dispersive representation based on unitarity and analyticity is used to study the low energy $\gamma N \to \pi N\ \text{and}\ \gamma^* N \to \pi N$ partial wave amplitudes. Final state interactions of the $\pi N$ system are critical to…

In this talk I summarize a recently proposed mechanism to understand pi pi scattering to 1 GeV. The model is motivated by the 1/Nc expansion to QCD, and includes a current algebra contact term and resonant pole exchanges. Chiral symmetry…
We suggest a new approach for the automatic and fully numerical evaluation of one-loop scattering amplitudes in perturbative quantum field theory. We use suitably formulated dispersion relations to perform the calculation as a convolution…
I discuss recent progress in our understanding of the pi pi scattering amplitude at low energy thanks to the combined use of chiral perturbation theory and dispersion relations. I also comment on the criticism raised by Pelaez and Yndurain…
We carry out an analysis of $\pi\pi$ scattering in the $IJ=00$, $11$ and $20$ channels in configuration space up to a maximal center-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}=1.4$ GeV. We separate the interaction into two regions marked by an elementarity…
This article completes a former work where part of the O(p^6) low-energy constants entering in the pi pi scattering were estimated. Some resonance contributions were missed in former calculations and slight differences appeared with respect…
The available experimental information is consistent with the Weinberg predictions for the threshold parameters of pi-pi-scattering. The data, however, only test those relations that are insensitive to the quark masses m_u and m_d. Recent…
Interactions in three coupled channels: pi-pi, K-anti K and sigma-sigma have been investigated in a wide two-pion effective mass region from the pi-pi threshold up to 1600 MeV. Analytical structure of amplitudes in all channels has been…
