We make a thermal analysis of the light scalar susceptibilities using SU(3)-Chiral Perturbation Theory to one loop taking into account the QCD source of isospin breaking (IB), i.e corrections coming from $m_u\neq m_d$. The value of the…
We analyze quark condensates and chiral (scalar) susceptibilities including isospin breaking effects at finite temperature $T$. These include $m_u\neq m_d$ contributions as well as electromagnetic ($e\neq 0$) corrections, both treated in a…
Within the framework of the $U(3)$ chiral perturbation theory, we revisit the masses, decay constants and the mixing parameters of the light pseudoscalar mesons $\pi, K, \eta$ and $\eta'$. The low energy constants up to…
Building upon recent results on the role of thermal resonances in chiral symmetry restoration, we show that a description of the QCD scalar susceptibility at finite temperature $T$ saturated by the thermal properties of the lightest scalar…
For direct CP-violation in $K\to\pi\pi$ decays, the usual isospin-breaking effects at the percent level are amplified by the dynamics behind the $\Delta I=1/2$ rule and conventionally encoded in $\Omega_{\rm IB}$ parameters. The updated…
In the early days of QCD, the axial $U(1)$ anomaly was considered as a trigger for the breaking of the $SU(2)_L\times SU(2)_R$ symmetry through topological excitations of gluon fields. However, it has been a challenge for lattice QCD to…
We calculate the chiral and thermal susceptibilities for two confining Dyson-Schwinger equation models of QCD with two light flavours, a quantitative analysis of which yields the critical exponents, beta and delta, that characterise the…
We employ Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) to evaluate the complete set of pseudoscalar matrix elements, <0|P_f|pi^0,eta>, with P_f any of the flavor-diagonal pseudoscalar currents (f=u,d,s), to order (m_d-m_u), and to next-to-leading…
We pursue the calculation of the model-independent component of the axion-photon-photon coupling in the $U(3)$ chiral perturbation theory up to next-to-leading order, with the emphasis on the isospin breaking effect. The mixing of the…
We analyze the isospin-breaking corrections to quark condensates within one-loop SU(2) and SU(3) Chiral Perturbation Theory including $m_u\neq m_d$ as well as electromagnetic (EM) contributions. The explicit expressions are given and…
We study $U_A(1)$ symmetry and its relation to chiral symmetry at finite temperature through the application of functional renormalization group to the $SU(3)$ quark meson model. Very different from the mass gap and mixing angel between…
We evaluate the leading infrared behavior of the scalar susceptibility in QCD and in the multiflavor Schwinger model for small non-zero quark mass $m$ and/or small nonzero temperature as well as the scalar susceptibility for the finite…
Although eta-eta' mixing is qualitatively well understood as a consequence of the U(1)_A anomaly in QCD together with a broken SU(3) flavor symmetry, until recently the values of decay and mixing parameters of the eta and eta' were only…
Mixing in the $\Sigma^0$-$\Lambda^0$ system is a direct consequence of broken isospin symmetry and is a measure of both isospin-symmetry breaking as well as general SU(3)-flavour symmetry breaking. In this work we present a new scheme for…
It is pointed out that the meson mixing matrix elements usually considered responsible for the bulk of the observed few-body charge symmetry breaking are naturally $q^2$-dependent in QCD. For $\pi^o-\eta$ mixing, using the usual…
The $q^2$ dependence of the $\pi$-$\eta$ mixing amplitude is examined with the use of QCD sum rules. The linear slope of the mixing function $\theta(q^2)$ is found to be much smaller than that for $\rho$-$\omega$ mixing. Thus the mixing…
Quark condensate and pseudoscalar decay constant in the chiral limit are the principal order parameters of spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking in QCD. Yet their three flavor values are still only weakly constrained by analyses using…
The first two non-trivial moments of the distribution of the topological charge (or gluonic winding number), i.e., the topological susceptibility and the fourth cumulant, can be computed in lattice QCD simulations and exploited to constrain…
Within the framework of SU(2) chiral perturbation theory, we derive the general solution of the QCD $\theta$-vacuum for an arbitrary vacuum phase, explicitly incorporating isospin-breaking effects from the light quark mass difference, and…
It is shown that including form factors for the quark-pseudoscalar meson couplings of the Georgi-Manohar chiral quark model allows one to obtain the leading off-shell dependence of $\pi^{o}- \eta$ mixing (as predicted by chiral perturbation…
