O(N) linear $\sigma$ model is solvable in the large $N$ limit and hence provides a useful theoretical laboratory to test various unitarization approximations. We find that the large $N_c$ limit and the $m_\sigma\to \infty$ limit do not…
The out-of-equilibrium dynamics of the O(N+1) nonlinear sigma model in 1+1 dimensions is investigated in the large N limit. Regarding the nonlinearity as the effect of a suitable large coupling limit of the O(N+1) \phi^4 model, we first of…

Studies on the dynamical properties of the $\sigma$ meson are reviewed and discussed. The important role of fundamental principles such as analyticity, unitarity and crossing symmetry played in the studies are stressed.
We show that the $\Xi (1690)$ resonance can be dynamically generated in the $s$-wave $\bar{K} \Sigma$-$\bar{K} \Lambda$-$\pi \Xi$-$\eta \Xi$ coupled-channels chiral unitary approach. In our model, the $\Xi (1690)$ resonance appears near the…
In this work we discuss the dynamical generation of mass in a deformed ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric nonlinear sigma model in a two-dimensional ($D=1+1$) space-time. We introduce the deformation by imposing a constraint that softly breaks…

The dynamical generation of a transverse gauge field mass is studied by means of gap equations for pure gauge theory and the gauged non-linear sigma model in three dimensions. Non-trivial solutions to the gap equations are found indicating…
It is proposed that asymptotically nonfree gauge theories are consistently interpreted as theories of composite gauge bosons. It is argued that when hidden local symmetry is introduced, masslessness and coupling universality of dynamically…
A definition of `dynamical generation', a hotly debated topic at present, is proposed and its implications are discussed. This definition, in turn, leads to a method allowing to distinguish in principle tetraquark and molecular states. The…
Gauge theories with no Maxwell term are investigated in various setups. The dynamical generation of the Maxwell term is correlated to the scale invariance properties of the system. This is discussed mainly in the cases where the gauge…
We study a dynamical chiral bag model, in which massless fermions are confined within an impenetrable but movable bag coupled to meson fields. The self-consistent motion of the bag is obtained by solving the equations of motion exactly…
The rho meson has long been successfully identified with a dynamical gauge boson of the Hidden Local Symmetry (HLS) $H_{\rm local}$ in the nonlinear sigma model $G/H$ gauge equivalent to the model having the symmetry $G_{\rm global}\times…
Dynamical fermion mass generation is studied in the three-dimensional Thirring model reformulated as a gauge theory by introducing hidden local symmetry. The analysis by use of Schwinger-Dyson equation is shown to exhibit a critical…
The sigma-meson, which is at best a broad resonance in the vacuum, may suffer a substantial red-shift and appear as a soft and narrow collective mode at finite temperature and baryon densities. The physics behind this softening phenomena…
Within the superfield formalism, we study the dynamical generation of mass to the gauge superfield in the noncommutative two-dimensional supersymmetric Schwinger model. We show that the radiatively generated mass does not depend on the…

Autonomous oscillators, such as clocks and lasers, produce periodic signals \emph{without} any external frequency reference. In order to sustain stable periodic motions, there needs to be external energy supply as well as nonlinearity built…
Recently it has been pointed out that no limits can be put on the scale of fermion mass generation $(M)$ in technicolor models, because the relation between the fermion masses $(m_f)$ and $M$ depends on the dimensionality of the interaction…
