Radiatively induced SU(2) symmetry breaking is shown to be a genuine feature of SU(2) x O(N) globally symmetric renormalisable field theories in the large N limit, describing interaction of a complex SU(2) doublet, O(N)-singlet field with…
We study the relation between the scale of chiral symmetry spontaneously breaking and constituent quark mass. We argue that this relation partly reveals strong interaction origination of chiral symmetry breaking. We show that the relation…
I discuss the global structure of the strongly interacting gauge theory of quarks and gluons as a function of the quark masses and the CP violating parameter $\theta$. I concentrate on whether a first order phase transition occurs at…
Gauge invariance is extended to allow to allow for a U(1)-SU(2) mixing term, which can cause a SU(2) deconfining transition.
We analyze the constraint structure of a spin-3/2 particle interacting with a pseudoscalar. Requiring the self consistency of the considered effective field theory imposes restrictions on the possible interaction terms. In the present case…
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…
We study the scattering of open-beauty mesons and Goldstone bosons as predicted by the chiral SU(3) Lagrangian. The impact of subleading order chiral interactions to systems with $J^P= 0^+$ and $J^P=1^+$ quantum numbers is worked out. We…
In recent lattice calculations it has been discovered that mesons upon truncation of the quasi-zero modes of the Dirac operator obey a symmetry larger than the $SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R\times U(1)_A$ symmetry of the QCD Lagrangian. This…
We study three flavour chiral perturbation theory in a limit where the strange quark mass is much larger than the external momenta and the up and down quark masses, and where the external fields are those of two-flavour chiral perturbation…
The most general chiral Lagrangian for electroweak interactions with the complete set of $SU(2)_L\times U(1)_Y$ invariant operators up to dimension four is considered. The two-point and three-point functions with external gauge fields are…
A study on the effective anomalous interactions, up to dimension 5, of the top quark with the electroweak gauge bosons is made in the non-linear Chiral Lagrangian approach. Bounds on the anomalous dimension four terms are obtained from…
We consider two SU(3) breaking parameters, $R_1(m_B)$ and $R_2(m_B)$, appearing in a relation between $B^+\to K\pi$ and $B^+\to\pi\pi$ amplitudes, which plays an important role in determining the weak phase $\gamma$. We identify an…
I discuss "truncated" QCD studied recently by Glozman et al. through numerical simulations. For two flavors it was observed that truncation restores the full chiral U(2)\times U(2) symmetry of the Lagrangian. Moreover, additional…
We investigate the spatial $ z $-correlators of meson operators in $ N_f=2+1+1+1 $ lattice QCD with optimal domain-wall quarks across eight temperatures ranging from 325 to 3250 MeV. The meson operators include a complete set of Dirac…
We identify conditions under which a summation over nucleon resonances can yield, via quark-hadron duality, parton model results for electromagnetic and neutrino structure functions at large x. While a summation over the lowest even and odd…
If the fundamental quarks of QCD are replaced by massless adjoint quarks, the pattern of the chiral symmetry breaking drastically changes compared to the standard one. It becomes SU(N_f) -> SO(N_f). While for N_f=2 the chiral Lagrangian…
We study the chiral symmetry in two-color QCD with N massless flavors at finite temperature, using an effective theory. For the gauge group SU(2), the chiral symmetry is enlarged to SU(2N), which is then spontaneously broken to Sp(2N) at…
We investigate the effects of flavor SU(3)-symmetry breaking on the QCD condensates, based on the nonlocal effective chiral action from the instanton vacuum, focusing on the quark-gluon mixed one. We employ two different parameterizations…
We consider the two Higgs doublet model extension of the Standard Model in the limit where all physical scalar particles are very heavy; too heavy, in fact, to be experimentally produced in forthcoming experiments. The symmetry breaking…
If above a critical temperature not only the SU(N_F)_L \times SU(N_F)_R chiral symmetry of QCD but also the U(1)_A symmetry is restored, then the actual symmetry of the QCD correlation functions and observables is SU(2N_F). Such a symmetry…
