The axial-vector coupling $g_A$ of a constituent quark is estimated from matching the constituent quark model to the operator product expansion in QCD in the limit of large number of colours under some assumptions. The obtained relation is…
Instead of using a simple reggeon-exchange model, we provide a model-independent estimate of high-energy contribution to the Adler-Weisberger sum-rule. Results and conclusions of the paper remain unchanged.
We determine the $N_c$--dependence of the resonance contributions to the Adler--Weisberger sum rule for the inverse square $1/g_A^2$ of the axial charge coupling constant and show that in the large $N_c$ limit the contributions of the…
We investigate the isoscalar and isovector components of the axial vector coupling constants, $g_A^{(0)}$ and $g_A$, using algebraic models that lead to the correct symmetries of large-$N_c$ QCD. Results obtained previously in various…
We reconsider the Constituent Chiral Quark Model of Manohar and Georgi in the presence of $SU(3)_{L}\times SU(3)_{R}$ external sources. As recently emphasized by Weinberg, the corresponding effective Lagrangian is renormalizable in the…
The large-$N_c$ consistency conditions for axial vector and isovector magnetic couplings of pions to baryons are discussed from the point of view of low-energy current-algebra sum rules (Adler-Weisberger, Cabibbo-Radicati). In particular,…
QCD sum rules are studied for the vector-isovector current at finite baryon density in the limit of large number of colors N_c. For the condensate side it is shown that in this limit the four-quark condensate factorizes also for the finite…
We discuss the strong coupling of heavy mesons to a pion g, in the heavy quark limit. This quantity is quite remarkable since its values as estimated by different methods (various quark models and the QCD sum rules), are surprisingly…
The Adler-Weisberger sum rule for the nucleon axial-vector charge, $g_A$, offers a unique signature of chiral symmetry and its breaking in QCD. Its derivation relies on both algebraic aspects of chiral symmetry, which guarantee the…
Following Weinberg's argument that narrow tetraquark mesons are not precluded in large N_c QCD, we explore the flow of N_c factors needed for the consistency of this picture, and show that they must arise in a novel way, not simply through…
Calculation of ratio of the nucleon axial and vector coupling constants $G_A/G_V$ in the framework of the quasipotential quark model has been performed. It was shown that in this model $G_A/G_V$ is defined by the ratio of the corresponding…
We calculate $g_A^3$ and $g_A^0$ in the Chiral Quark-Soliton Model (or equivalently in semibosonized Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model) in the limit of small and large soliton size. In small soliton limit we recover the results of the Constituent…
The nucleon axial-vector coupling constant $g_A$ is studied in the presence of an external magnetic field, and in dense nuclear environments, to emulate nuclear matter in magnetars. For this purpose we use QCD finite energy sum rules for…
The QCD sum rules in the large-$N_c$ limit for the light non-strange vector, axial and scalar mesons are considered assuming a string-like linear spectrum for the radially excited states. We propose a improved method for combined analysis…
Masses and especially coupling constants of the vector meson nonet are determined in the large-N_c limit, but beyond the chiral limit taking into account terms up to quadratic order in the Goldstone boson masses. With two input parameters…
We derive a relation for the axial-coupling constants of the nucleon and spin-3/2 baryons including the $\Delta(1232)$ with the use of an $SU(2)_R\times SU(2)_L$ invariant Lagrangian. Therein the nucleon belongs to the fundamental…
We explore a consistent way to extend the partially conserved axial vector current (PCAC) relation and corresponding current algebra results. The paper includes investigations of a chiral Ward-Takahashi identity, the explicit chiral…
We study the long-distance properties of quantum chromodynamics in an expansion in powers of the three-gluon, four-gluon, and ghost-gluon couplings, but without expanding in the quark-gluon coupling. This is motivated by two observations.…
In ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions at $\roots\approx200$ GeV, the azimuthal emission anisotropy of hadrons with low and intermediate transverse momentum ($p_T\lesssim 4$ GeV/c) displays an intriguing scaling. In particular, the…
We impose the requirement that the isovector axial vector current for the soliton sector of the chiral quark model transforms correctly under particle conjugation. This forces us to choose an otherwise arbitrary ordering of collective space…
