We propose an approach for calculating $K\to\pi\pi$ decays to the next-to-leading order in chiral expansion. A detailed numerical study of this approach is being performed.
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…
The cusp effect in K \to 3\pi and data on K_e4 decays allow one to extract experimental information on the elastic \pi\pi scattering amplitude near threshold, and to confront the outcome of the analyses with predictions made in the…
The charged $K_{\ell 4}$ decay, $K^+\to\pi^+\pi^-\ell^+\nu_{\ell}$ is studied in the framework of chiral perturbation theory based on the effective Lagrangian including mesons, photons, and leptons. We give analytic expressions for the two…

We study the decay $\eta'\to\eta\pi\pi$ in two different chiral invariant approaches: Large-$N_c$ Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) and Large-$N_c$ Resonance Chiral Theory (RChT). We analyze the Dalitz plot and the invariant mass spectra.…

Continuing our previous work(JHEP 0706:030,2007), large--$N_C$ techniques and partial wave dispersion relations are used to discuss $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitudes. We get a set of predictions for $O(p^6)$ low-energy chiral perturbation…
We construct an effective non-relativistic quantum field theory that describes bound states of pi+ pi- pairs and their hadronic decays. We then derive a general expression for the lifetime of the ground state at next-to-leading order in…
