abstract
Effective field theory allows for a systematic and model-independent derivation of the forces between nucleons in harmony with the symmetries of Quantum Chromodynamics. We review the foundations of this approach and discuss its application for light nuclei at various resolution scales. The extension of this approach to many-body systems is briefly sketched.

A parametric low-rank update to the Hamiltonian reduces the A-body problem exactly to a low-dimensional matrix equation at fixed energy.
Improved leading-order lattice Hamiltonians lower the liquid-gas critical temperature of symmetric nuclear matter to 13.50(17)-13.71(19) MeV while improving zero-temperature binding energies and saturation point.
Auxiliary counterterms provide exact cutoff independence in EFTs but encode no new physics and aid renormalization consistency and convergence.
Six classes of CP-violating operators near the QCD scale produce distinct EDM patterns that enable discrimination of their origins and distinguish high-scale versus low-energy sources of the axion vacuum expectation value.
Perturbative N3LO calculations in chiral EFT with RG-guided power counting yield robust predictions for light nuclei energies when calibrated on the tritium binding energy.
Chiral EFT derivation of the Δ⁻ → p e⁻ e⁻ amplitude including long-range neutrino loops, short-range counterterms, pion-mass dependence for collinear electrons, and a long-range prediction in the degenerate Δ-nucleon mass limit.
Nuclei are 3A-quark systems where Fermi gas explains equal u/d quarks in light nuclei, a modified bag model fits heavier ones, and AdS5 duality predicts the lightest glueball's decay and sets the maximum stable nuclear charge at Z=82 for lead.
