N/D Description of Two Meson Amplitudes and Chiral Symmetry
read the original abstract
The most general structure of an elastic partial wave amplitude when the unphysical cuts are neglected is deduced in terms of the N/D method. This result is then matched to lowest order, ${\mathcal{O}}(p^2)$, Chiral Perturbation Theory($\chi$PT) and to the exchange (consistent with chiral symmetry) of resonances in the s-channel. The extension of the method to coupled channels is also given. Making use of the former formalism, the $\pi\pi$ and $K\pi$(I=1/2) P-wave scattering amplitudes are described without free parameters when taking into account relations coming from the 1/$N_c$ expansion and unitarity. Next, the scalar sector is studied and good agreement with experiment up to $\sqrt{s}=1.4$ GeV is found. It is observed that the $a_0(980)$, $\sigma$ and $\kappa(900)$ resonances are meson-meson states originating from the unitarization of the ${\mathcal{O}}(p^2)$ $\chi$PT amplitudes. On the other hand, the $f_0(980)$ is a combination of a strong S-wave meson-meson unitarity effect and of a preexisting singlet resonance with a mass around 1 GeV. We have also studied the size of the contributions of the unphysical cuts to the $\pi\pi$(I=0) and $K\pi$(I=1/2) elastic S-wave amplitudes from $\chi$PT and the exchange of resonances in crossed channels up to $\sqrt{s}\approx 800$ MeV. The loops are calculated as in $\chi$PT at next to leading order. We find a small correction from the unphysical cuts to our calculated partial waves.

Analysis of the $D_0^*(2300)$ resonance from lattice QCD under chiral symmetry
Chiral symmetry corrections in lattice QCD fits shift the D0*(2300) resonance pole closer to the Dπ threshold and reduce its width, while coupled channels produce a two-pole structure.
