The conditions leading to a nontrivial renormalization of the topological charge in four--dimensional Yang--Mills theory are discussed. It is shown that if the topological term is regarded as the limit of a certain nontopological interaction, quantum effects due to the gauge bosons lead to a finite multiplicative renormalization of the theta--parameter while fermions give rise to an additional shift of theta. A truncated form of an exact renormalization group equation is used to study the scale dependence of the theta--parameter. Possible implications for the strong CP--problem of QCD are discussed.

  1. Glueball Axion-Like Particles

    hep-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    A pseudoscalar glueball from a dark Yang-Mills sector, called a GALP, is shown to behave like an axion-like particle and to be a viable dark matter candidate with a predicted mass-coupling relation.
