The most important parameters in the study of low-energy scattering are the s-wave and p-wave scattering lengths and the s-wave effective range. We solve the scattering problem and find two useful formulas for the scattering length and the…

We consider the Olsson sum rule, i.e., the forward dispersion relation for pion-pion scattering with exchange of isospin unity at threshold. We show that, if using the S0, S2 and P wave expressions of Colangelo, Gasser and Leutwyler, then…
In a series of papers we have applied several sum rules and forward dispersion relations, to pion-pion scattering. We have found that some widely used data sets fail to satisfy these constraints, and we have provided an amplitude that…
A family of threshold parameters which probe the stability of chiral predictions is considered. The relevant criteria for the choice of threshold parameters are discussed. Sum rules for these quantities are derived from dispersion relations…
This paper contains the results of an analysis of recent low-energy pion-nucleon scattering experiments. Obtained are phase shifts, the pion-nucleon coupling constant and an estimate of the Sigma term.
The multichannel S- and P-wave amplitudes for the pion-pion scattering, constructed requiring analyticity and unitarity of the S-matrix and using the uniformization procedure, are elaborated using the dispersion relations with imposed…
We calculate the $T$-matrices of elastic pion-nucleon ($\pi N$) scattering up to fourth order in SU(3) heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. The pertinent low-energy constants are determined by fitting to $\pi N$ phase shifts below 200…
We study the properties of the Resonance-Spectrum Expansion near threshold in I=0 S-wave pion-pion scattering. The real part of the amplitude, when extrapolated from above threshold to below threshold, is found to vanish at a positive…

Medium and high energy absorptive parts contribute to dispersive expressions for D- wave scattering lengths, $a^0_2$ and $a^2_2$. For the model employed by Basdevant, Frogatt and Peterson we find the D- wave driving term contributions to…

We consider the sum rule proposed by one of us (SLA), obtained by taking the expectation value of an axial vector commutator in a state with one pion. The sum rule relates the pion decay constant to integrals of pion-pion cross sections,…
Starting from hyperbolic dispersion relations, we derive a system of Roy--Steiner equations for pion Compton scattering that respects analyticity, unitarity, gauge invariance, and crossing symmetry. It thus maintains all symmetries of the…
