In this talk I summarize a recently proposed mechanism to understand pi pi scattering to 1 GeV. The model is motivated by the 1/Nc expansion to QCD, and includes a current algebra contact term and resonant pole exchanges. Chiral symmetry…
Motivated by the search for possible CP violating terms in the trace of the energy-momentum tensor in theories coupled to gravity we revisit the problem of trace anomalies in chiral theories. We recalculate the latter and ascertain that in…
Chiral anomaly modifies the scattering processes in chiral systems which can be computed using the Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory that couples electrodynamics to the pseudoscalar field $\theta$ describing the topological charge induced be…
We propose a formalism to extract the $\gamma\pi\to\pi\pi$ chiral anomaly $F_{3\pi}$ from calculations in lattice QCD performed at larger-than-physical pion masses. To this end, we start from a dispersive representation of the…
We demonstrate that, together with the available experimental information, chiral symmetry determines the low energy behaviour of the $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitude to within very small uncertainties. In particular, the threshold parameters…
Chiral perturbation theory, the low energy effective theory of the strong interactions for the light pseudoscalar degrees of freedom, is based on effective Lagrangian techniques and is an expansion in the powers of the external momenta and…
Measurement of the $\gamma 3\pi$ process has revealed a possible conflict with what should be a solid prediction generated by the chiral anomaly. We show that inclusion of appropirate energy-momentum dependence in the matrix element reduces…
We describe a rearrangement of the standard expansion of the symmetry breaking part of the QCD effective Lagrangian that includes into each order additional terms which in the standard chiral perturbation theory ($\chi$PT) are relegated to…
We investigated the origin of the RI'/MOM quark mass under the Landau gauge at the non-perturbative scale, using the chiral fermion with different quark masses and lattice spacings. Our result confirms that such a mass is non-vanishing…
Anomalous sector of chiral Lagrangian is calculated in a gauge invariant, nonlocal, dynamical quark model. The Wess-Zumino term is proved coming from two kinds of sources, one is independent on and another dependent on dynamical quark self…
We show that the non-strange scalar $\sigma$ meson, as now reported in the 1996 PDG tables, is a natural consequence of crossing symmetry as well as chiral dynamics for both strong interaction low energy $\pi\pi$ scattering and also $K \to…
The trace anomaly of conformal matter implies the existence of massless scalar poles in physical amplitudes involving the stress-energy tensor. These poles may be described by a local effective action with massless scalar fields, which…
We calculate the trace (conformal) anomaly for chiral fermions in a general curved background using Hadamard subtraction. While in intermediate steps of the calculation imaginary terms proportional to the Pontryagin density appear, imposing…
For the gamma-pion interaction, the perturbative expansion of the effective chiral Lagrangian (chi-PT) can be limited to terms quartic in momenta and masses (O(p4)), or to higher order. The abnormal intrinsic parity (chiral anomaly)…
Symmetries affected by the anomaly do not survive quantization and cannot be understood classically. They are of fundamental importance and offer an opportunity of expanding the theoretical framework. We examine the theory of the anomalous…
An elementary derivation of the chiral gauge anomaly in all even dimensions is given in terms of noncommutative traces of pseudo-differential operators.
A popular physical picture of the mechanism behind the four-dimensional chiral anomaly is provided by the massless Dirac equation in the presence of constant electric and magnetic background fields. The magnetic field creates highly…
The $\gamma^* \pi^0 \rightarrow \gamma$ form factor, including the extension off the pion mass-shell, is obtained from a generalized impulse approximation within a QCD-based model field theory known to provide an excellent description of…
In this paper, we study the problem of trace anomaly for a chiral fermion. To find whether there exists a parity-odd term (Pontryagin term), we use a modified Breitenlohner-Maison-'t Hooft-Veltman regularization and Fujikawa's method by a…
We propose an effective chiral Lagrangian with a chiral scalar introduced as a dilaton associated with broken conformal symmetry and responsible for the trace anomaly in QCD and discuss the properties of hadronic matter at high density and…
