We study the finite temperature properties of an effective chiral Lagrangian which describes nuclear matter. Thermal fluctuations in both the nucleon and the meson fields are considered. The logarithmic and square root terms in the…

The chiral anomaly underlies a broad number of phenomena, from enhanced electronic transport in topological metals to anomalous currents in the quark-gluon plasma. The discovery of topological states of matter in non-Hermitian systems --…

Independent of assumptions about the form of the quark-antiquark scattering kernel we derive the explicit relation between the pion Bethe-Salpeter amplitude, Gamma_pi, and the quark propagator in the chiral limit; Gamma_pi necessarily…

We use one-loop chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) to compare lattice results for the K+ to pi+ pi0 decay amplitude with the experimental value. Three systematic effects: quenching, finite-volume effects, and the use of unphysical values of…

We complete the recalculation of the available two-loop expressions for the reaction \gamma\gamma->\pi\pi in the framework of chiral perturbation theory. Here, we present the results for charged pions. The cross section and the values of…

Single pion production off nucleons is studied in the framework of relativistic baryon chiral perturbation theory at tree level with the inclusion of the terms from the dimension two effective pion-nucleon Lagrangian. The five appearing…

The CPT anomaly, which was first seen in perturbation theory for certain four-dimensional chiral gauge theories, is also present in the exact result for a class of two-dimensional chiral U(1) gauge theories on the torus. Specifically, the…

Pion photoproduction is analyzed with the chiral Lagrangian. Partial-wave amplitudes are obtained by an analytic extrapolation of subthreshold reaction amplitudes computed in chiral perturbation theory, where the constraints set by…

The lowest-lying resonance in the QCD spectrum is the $0^{++}$ isoscalar $\sigma$ meson, also known as the $f_0(500)$. We augment SU(2) chiral perturbation theory ($\chi$PT) by including the $\sigma$ meson as an additional explicit degree…

We discuss the potential of Ginsparg-Wilson fermion simulations in the epsilon-regime of chiral perturbation theory, regarding the determination of the leading low energy constants of the effective chiral Lagrangian. It turns out to be very…

The values of charged pion polarizabilities obtained in the framework of chiral perturbation theory at the level of two-loop accuracy are compared with the experimental result recently reported by COMPASS Collaboration. It is found that the…

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 review the cross sections for low-energy $\pi^- \gamma$ reactions in the framework of chiral perturbation theory. Charged pion Compton scattering, $\pi^- \gamma\to \pi^-\gamma$, is considered up to one-loop order where the pion's…

We derive constraints on combinations of O(p^6) chiral coupling constants by matching a recent two-loop calculation of the pi-K scattering amplitude with a set of sum rules. We examine the validity of the natural expectation that the values…

We consider N Dirac fermions on a 4-dimensional Euclidean space with a quadratic interaction given by arbitrary external Clifford-valued fields. The divergence of the axial current satisfies on the classical level a relation that is…

A variant of variationally optimized perturbation, incorporating renormalization group properties in a straightforward way, uniquely fixes the variational mass interpolation in terms of the anomalous mass dimension. It is used at three…

The gamma^* --> gamma pi^0 transition measured at different photon virtualities already provides us with a clean test for the behaviour of the pi^0 gamma^* gamma off-shell axial anomaly at large time-like squared momenta. It also allows…

I review some aspects of the interplay between anomalies and chiral symmetry. The quantum anomaly that breaks the U(1) axial symmetry of massless QCD leaves behind a flavor-singlet discrete chiral invariance. When the mass is turned on this…

To date numerical simulations of lattice QCD have not found a chiral phase transition of first order which is expected to occur for sufficiently light pions. We show how the restoration of an exact global chiral symmetry can strongly…

Renormalizability of a lattice chiral fermion is studied at one loop level in the overlap formulation in four dimensions. The fermion chirality is examined including the self-energy corrections due to gauge interactions. Divergent terms…
