We study SU(3)$_L\timesSU(3)_R$ chiral quark model of mesons up to the next to leading order of $1/N_c$ expansion. Composite vector and axial-vector mesons resonances are introduced via non-linear realization of chiral SU(3) and vector…

I review three different non-perturbative approaches to the three dimensional Thirring model: the 1/N_f expansion, Schwinger-Dyson equations, and Monte Carlo simulation. Simulation results are presented to support the existence of a…

We calculate the width of the delta resonance at leading two-loop order in baryon chiral perturbation theory. This gives a correlation between the leading pion-nucleon-delta and pion-delta couplings, which is relevant for the analysis of…
We evaluate the pion mass in finite volume to two loops within Chiral Perturbation Theory. The results are compared with a recently proposed extension of the asymptotic formula of Luscher. We find that contributions, which were neglected in…
Parameters of the effective chiral lagrangian (EChL) of orders $O(p^4)$ and $O(p^6)$ are extracted from low--energy behaviour of dual resonance models for $ \pi\pi$ and $\pi K$ scattering amplitudes. Dual resonance models are considered to…
The essential points and physical backgrounds of the covariant level-classification scheme, based on U(12)SF * O(3,1)L, are reviewed: This scheme is extended from the non-relativistic SU(6)SF * O(3)L scheme by introducing the new SU(2)-spin…
We report on recent progress on the chiral unitary approach, which is shown to have a much larger convergence radius than ordinary chiral perturbation theory, allowing one to reproduce data for meson meson interaction up to 1.2 GeV and…
We examine low energy limit of $U(3)_L\times U(3)_R$ chiral theory of mesons through integrating out fields of vector and axial-vector mesons. The effective lagrangian for pseudoscalar mesons at $O(p^4)$ has been obtained, and five low…
It is shown that a chiral quark model of the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio type can be used to describe "soft"-momenta parts of the amplitudes with large momentum transfer. As a sample, the processes \gamma^* --> \gamma (\pi,\eta,\eta') where one of…
We model interaction of photons, pseudoscalars and vector mesons within the resonance chiral symmetric theory with the SU(3) breaking. The couplings of the model are fitted to the experimental data. Within the developed model we predict the…
