We present a comprehensive study of the electromagnetic form factor, the decay constant and the mass of the pion computed in lattice QCD with two degenerate O(a)-improved Wilson quarks at three different lattice spacings in the range…
We analyze the properties of four-quark condensates and scalar susceptibilities in the meson gas, within finite temperature Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT). The breaking of the factorization hypothesis does not allow for a finite…
We compute the $\widehat B_K$ parameter and the mass difference $\Delta M_{LS}$ of the $K^0-\bar K^0$ system by means of the chiral quark model. The chiral coefficients of the relevant $\Delta S=2$ and $\Delta S=1$ chiral lagrangians are…
We introduce an extension of a variationally optimized perturbation method, by combining it with renormalization group properties in a straightforward (perturbative) form. This leads to a very transparent and efficient procedure, with a…
We calculate the T-matrices of pseudoscalar meson octet-baryon scattering to one-loop order in SU(3) heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. The pertinent combinations of low-energy constants are determined by fitting to phase shifts of…
The QCD phase transition is studied on $16^3$ and $32^3 \times 4$ lattices both with and without quark loops. We introduce a new zero-flavor or quenched species of quark $\zeta$ and study the resulting chiral condensate, $\azbz$ as a…
We calculate one-loop correction to the axial charges of the octet baryons using quenched chiral perturbation theory, in order to understand chiral behavior of the axial charges in quenched approximation to quantum chromodynamics (QCD). In…
We investigate and clarify the role of topology and the issues surrounding the epsilon regime for staggered quarks. We study unimproved and improved staggered quark Dirac operators on quenched lattice QCD gluon backgrounds generated using a…
The problem of precise evaluation of perturbative QCD predictions at moderate energies is addressed. In order to improve stability of the predictions with respect to change of the renormalization scheme it is proposed to replace the…
We develop a new formalism for computing and including both the perturbative and nonperturbative QCD contributions to the scale evolution of average gluon and quark jet multiplicities. The new method is motivated by recent progress in…
We analyze the possible dynamical chiral symmetry breaking patterns taking place within Weyl type of materials. Here, these systems are modeled by the (2+1)-dimensional Gross-Neveu model with a tilt in the Dirac cone. The optimized…
The unquenched spectral density of the Dirac operator at $\mu\neq0$ is complex and has oscillations with a period inversely proportional to the volume and an amplitude that grows exponentially with the volume. Here we show how the…
The calculation of perturbative corrections to the spectral moments observable in hadronic $\tau$ decays is reconsidered. The exact order-$\alpha_s^3$ results and the resummation procedure of Le~Diberder and Pich are compared with a partial…
Dark pions are promising dark matter candidates, yet most analyses rely on leading-order (LO) chiral perturbation theory (ChPT). Motivated by the fact that, even for QCD pi-pi scattering, LO ChPT near threshold underestimates the isoscalar…
We analyze the dynamical chiral symmetry breaking in gauge theories solely by the non-perturbative renormalization group, without recourse to the Schwinger-Dyson method. First, we briefly review the basic notions and formulation, and…
We analyze lattice data for octet baryon masses from the QCDSF collaboration employing manifestly covariant Baryon Chiral Perturbation Theory. It is shown that certain combinations of low-energy constants can be fixed more accurately than…
Perturbative QCD corrections to hadronic $\tau$ decays and $e^+e^-$ annihilation into hadrons below charm are obtained from the Adler function, which at present is known in the chiral limit to five-loop accuracy. Extractions of the strong…
We present a novel analysis of the $\pi N$ scattering amplitude in covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory up to ${\cal O}(p^3)$ within the extended-on-mass-shell renormalization scheme and including the $\Delta(1232)$ explicitly in the…
We construct the next-to-leading order chiral lagrangian for scalar and pseudo-scalar densities defined using the gradient flow. We calculate the chiral condensate and the pion decay constant to this order from operators at positive flow…
Non-perturbative renormalization group approach to the dynamical chiral symmetry breaking is an effective method which can accommodate beyond the ladder (mean filed) approximation. The usual method relying on the field operator expansion…
