After our work was published, Frink and Mei{\ss}ner \cite{FM06} pointed out that our {\cal O}(q^3) three-flavour meson-baryon chiral Lagrangian was not minimal. Here, we discuss their findings and revise ours accordingly. We find that eight…

We construct the relativistic chiral Lagrangians for heavy-light mesons $(Q\bar{q})$ to the $\mathcal{O}(p^4)$ order. From $\mathcal{O}(p^2)$ to $\mathcal{O}(p^4)$, there are 17, 67, and 404 independent terms in the flavor $SU(2)$ case and…
The chiral Lagrangians for singly heavy baryons are constructed up to the $\mathcal{O}(p^{4})$ order. The involved baryons may be in a flavor antitriplet with spin-1/2, a flavor sextet with spin-$1/2$, or a flavor sextet with spin-3/2 when…

We investigate chiral properties of local (non-derivative) fields of baryons consisting of three quarks with flavor SU(3) symmetry. We construct explicitly independent local three-quark fields belonging to definite Lorentz and flavor…
The self-energies of the full set of flavor SU(3) octet and decuplet baryons are computed within a relativistic chiral effective theory framework. The leading nonanalytic chiral behavior is derived for the octet and decuplet masses, and a…
We construct the relativistic chiral Lagrangians with decuplet baryons up to the order $\mathcal{O}(p^4)$ (one loop). For the meson-decuplet-decuplet couplings, there are 1, 13, 55, and 548 terms in the $\mathcal{O}(p^1)$-$\mathcal{O}(p^4)$…

We study three-flavor octet baryons by using the so-called extended Linear Sigma Model (eLSM). Within a quark-diquark picture, the requirement of a mirror assignment naturally leads to the consideration of four spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ baryon…
