We present the scattering lengths for the $\pi\pi$ processes in the three flavour Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) framework at next-to-next-to-leading order. We then combine this calculation with the determination of the parameters from…
We present the results of a search for relations between observables that are independent of the Chiral Pertubation Theory (ChPT) Next-to-Next-to-Leading Order (NNLO) Low-Energy Constants (LECs). We have found some relations between…

Chiral symmetry breaking may exhibit significantly different patterns in two chiral limits: N_f=2 massless flavours (m_u=m_d=0, m_s physical) and N_f=3 massless flavours (m_u=m_d=0=m_s=0). Such a difference may arise due to vacuum…
We present the results from our two-loop calculations of masses, decay-constants, vacuum-expectation-values and the $K_{\ell4}$ form-factors in three-flavour Chiral Perturbation Theory (CHPT). We use this to fit the $L_i^r$ to two-loops and…
It is shown that the low energy coefficients of the next-to-leading order (NLO) chiral perturbation theory needed to determine $\Delta I=1/2$, $K\to\pi\pi$ decay amplitudes can be fixed by calculating $K\pi\to\pi$ amplitudes on lattice.…
$K_{\ell4}$ decays offer several reasons of interest: they allow an accurate measurement of $\pi\pi$-scattering lengths; they provide the best source for the determination of some low-energy constants of ChPT; one form factor is directly…
We present the analytical results for the K -> 3 pi final state interactions at next-to-leading order (NLO) in CHPT. We also study the recent Cabibbo's proposal to measure the pi-pi scattering lenghts combination a_0-a_2 from the cusp…
The (light but not-so-light) strange quark may play a special role in the low-energy dynamics of QCD. The presence of strange quark pairs in the sea may have a significant impact of the pattern of chiral symmetry breaking : in particular…
We compute next-to-leading order (NLO) corrections in the \epsilon-regime of Wilson (WChPT) and Staggered Chiral Perturbation Theory (SChPT). A difference between the two is that in WChPT already at NLO, that is at O(\epsilon^2), new low…
We apply the one-loop results of the $SU(3)_L\times SU(3)_R$ ChPT suplemented with the inverse amplitude method to fit the available experimental data on $\pi\pi$ and $\pi K$ scattering. With esentially only three parameters we describe…
The $F$ and $G$ form-factors of $K_{\ell4}$ and the quark condensates are calculated to ${\cal O}(p^6)$ in Chiral Perturbation Theory (CHPT). Full formulas are presented as much as possible. A full refit of most of the ${\cal O}(p^4)$ CHPT…
We study nucleon-nucleon ($NN$) scattering by applying the $N/D$ method in chiral perturbation theory up to next-to-next-to-leading (NNLO) order in the calculation of the imaginary part of the $NN$ partial-wave amplitudes along the…
Experimental information on low energy $\pi K$ scattering would shed light on the poorly known OZI suppressed sector of ChPT. I describe recent work aimed at generating such information based on available experimental data by setting up and…
Four of the six parameters defining the two-loop \pi\pi scattering amplitude have been determined using Roy dispersion relations. Combining this information with the Standard \chi PT expressions, we obtain the threshold parameters,…
We present the ingredients for determining $K^{+}\to\pi^{+}\pi^{0}$ matrix elements via the combination of lattice QCD and chiral perturbation theory ($\chi$PT). By simulating these matrix elements at unphysical kinematics, it is possible…
We report on our determination of the values of the one and two loop low energy constants appearing in the Chiral Perturbation Theory calculation of the pi-pi scattering amplitude. For this we use a precise sum rule determination of…
The $\eta \to 3\pi$ decays are a valuable source of information on low energy QCD. Yet they were not used for an extraction of the three flavor chiral symmetry breaking order parameters until now. We use a Bayesian approach in the framework…
We match the known chiral perturbation theory representation of the pi pi scattering amplitude to two loops with a phenomenological description that relies on the Roy equations. On this basis, the corrections to Weinberg's low energy…
We discuss various aspects of resummed chiral perturbation theory, which was developed recently in order to consistently include the possibility of large vacuum fluctuations of the ss-pairs and the scenario with smaller value of the chiral…
