The mixed-isospin vector current correlator, $\langle 0\vert T(V^\rho_\mu V^\omega_\nu )\vert 0\rangle$ is evaluated using both QCD sum rules and Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) to one-loop order. The sum rule treatment is a modification…

Standard QCD sum-rule analyses of the nucleon mass give results that are inconsistent with chiral perturbation theory due to an overly simple continuum ansatz on the phenomenological side of the sum rule. We show that a careful treatment of…
