abstract

We consider chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) with a non-zero theta term. Due to the CP violating term, the vacuum of chiral fields is shifted to a non-trivial element on the SU(N_f) group manifold. The CP violation also provides mixing of different CP eigenstates, between scalar and pseudoscalar, or vector and axialvector operators. We investigate upto O(theta^2) effects on the mesonic two point correlators of ChPT to the one-loop order. We also address the effects of fixing topology, by using saddle point integration in the Fourier transform with respect to theta.

A Fluctuation Theory of Topological Susceptibility

hep-lat · 2019-08-09 · reject · novelty 3.0

The claim that ChPT topological susceptibility fluctuations are always non-interacting relies on a determinant that the paper's own equations show to be nonzero, and the slab sub-volume analysis contains further algebraic errors.
