Tau mesonic decays and strong anomaly of PCAC
Strong anomaly of the PCAC is found in and
in the chiral limit. It originates in WZW anomaly. Theoretical
result of agrees with data well and the
measurement of will confirm the strong anomaly
of PCAC. The strong anomaly of PCAC is studied.Comment: 27 page
General Structure of Relativistic Vector Condensation
We study relativistic massive vector condensation due to a non zero chemical
potential associated to some of the global conserved charges of the theory. We
show that the phase structure is very rich. More specifically there are three
distinct phases depending on the value of one of the zero chemical potential
vector self interaction terms. We also develop a formalism which enables us to
investigate the vacuum structure and dispersion relations in the spontaneously
broken phase of the theory. We show that in a certain limit of the couplings
and for large chemical potential the theory is not stable. This limit,
interestingly, corresponds to a gauge type limit often employed to economically
describe the ordinary vector mesons self interactions in QCD. We finally
indicate for which physical systems our analysis is relevant.Comment: RevTex4 14 pages,4 figure
Effective chiral Lagrangians for spin-1 mesons
The commonly used types of effective theory for vector mesons are reviewed
and their relationships clarified. They are shown to correspond to different
choices of field for spin-1 particles and the rules for transforming between
them are described. The importance of respecting chiral symmetry is stressed.
The choice of fields that transform homogeneously under the nonlinear
realisation of chiral symmetry imposes no preconceptions about the types of
coupling for the mesons. This representation thus provides a convenient
framework for relating different theories. It is also used to elucidate the
nature of the assumptions in specific hidden-gauge and massive Yang-Mills
models that have been widely used.Comment: 46 pages (RevTeX
The Superfluid and Conformal Phase Transitions of Two-Color QCD
The phase structure of two-color QCD is examined as a function of the
chemical potential and the number of light quark flavors. We consider effective
Lagrangians for two-color QCD containing the Goldstone excitations, spin-one
particles and negative intrinsic parity terms. We discuss the possibility of a
conformal phase transition and the enhancement of the global symmetries as the
number of flavors is increased. The effects of a quark chemical potential on
the spin-one particles and on the negative intrinsic parity terms are analyzed.
It is shown that the phase diagram that is predicted by the linearly realized
effective Lagrangian at tree-level matches exactly that predicted by chiral
perturbation theory.Comment: ReVTeX, 23 pages, 3 figures. Discussion of vector condensation

An alternative model for the electroweak symmetry breaking sector and its signature in future e-gamma colliders
We perform a preliminary study of the deviations from the Standard Model
prediction for the cross section for the process . We work in the context of a higgsless chiral lagrangian model that
includes an extra vector resonance and an anomalous coupling.
We find that this cross section can provide interesting constraints on the free
parameters of the model once it is measured in future colliders.Comment: LaTex , 14 pages, 5 figures not included but available as postscript

Strangeness in the nucleon and the ratio of proton-to-neutron neutrino-induced quasi-elastic yield
The electroweak form factors of the nucleon as obtained within a three flavor
pseudoscalar vector meson soliton model are employed to predict the ratio of
the proton and neutron yields from , which are induced by quasi-elastic
neutrino reactions. These predictions are found to vary only moderately in the
parameter space allowed by the model. The antineutrino flux of the up-coming
experiment determining this ratio was previously overestimated. The
corresponding correction is shown to have only a small effect on the predicted
ratio. However, it is found that the experimental result for the ratio
crucially depends on an accurate measurement of the energy of the knocked out
nucleon.Comment: 17 pages, LaTeX, 2 tables, 4 figures, Discussion on shape of strange

Exploring \pp scattering in the \1N picture
In the large approximation to , the leading \pp scattering
amplitude is expressed as the sum of an infinite number of tree diagrams. We
investigate the possibility that an adequate approximation at energies up to
somewhat more than one can be made by keeping diagrams which involve the
exchange of resonances in this energy range in addition to the simplest chiral
contact terms. In this approach crossing symmetry is automatic but individual
terms tend to drastically violate partial wave unitarity. We first note that
the introduction of the meson in a chirally invariant manner
substantially delays the onset of drastic unitarity violation which would be
present for the {\it current algebra} term alone. This suggests a possibility
of local (in energy) cancellation which we then explore in a phenomenological
way. We include exchanges of leading resonances up to the region.
However, unitarity requires more structure which we model by a four derivative
contact term or by a low lying scalar resonance which is presumably subleading
in the \1N expansion, but may nevertheless be important. The latter two
flavor model gives a reasonable description of the phase shift up
until around , before the effects associated which the
threshold come into play.Comment: 27 LaTex pages + 13 figures (also available in hard-copy
Role of a_1(1260) resonance in multipion decays of light vector mesons
The contribution of the a_1(1260) meson to the amplitudes of the decays
rho(770) to 4 pi, omega(782) to 5 pi, and phi(1020) to 5 pi is analyzed in the
chiral model of pseudoscalar, vector, and axial vector mesons based on the
generalized hidden local symmetry added with the anomalous terms. The analysis
shows that inclusion of a_1 meson in the intermediate states results in
enhancement of the branching ratios of the above decays by the factor ranging
from 1.3 to 1.9 depending on the mass of a_1 meson ranging from 1.23 GeV to
m_{a_1}=m_rho sqrt{2}=1.09 GeV, the greater factor standing in case of lower
mass of the a_1.Comment: 14 pages, 5 figure
Vacuum stability and the Cholesky decomposition
We discuss how the Cholesky decomposition may be used to ascertain whether a
critical point of the field theory scalar potential provides a stable vacuum
configuration. We then use this method to derive the stability conditions in a
specific example.Comment: 7 page
Two charged strangeonium-like structures observable in the process
Via the Initial Single Pion Emission (ISPE) mechanism, we study the
invariant mass spectrum distribution of . Our calculation indicates there exist a sharp peak
structure () close to the threshold and a broad
structure () near the threshold. In addition, we
also investigate the process due to
the ISPE mechanism, where a sharp peak around the threshold
appears in the invariant mass spectrum distribution. We
suggest to carry out the search for these charged strangeonium-like structures
in future experiment, especially Belle II, Super-B and BESIII.Comment: 7 pages, 5 figures. Accepted by Eur. Phys. J.
