Parity and Ct Realization in Qcd
نویسنده
چکیده
We show that an essential assumption in the Vafa and Witten’s theorem on P and CT realization in vector-like theories, the existence of a free energy density in Euclidean space in the presence of any external hermitian symmetry breaking source, does not apply if the symmetry is spontaneously broken. The assumption that the free energy density is well defined requires the previous assumption that the symmetry is realized in the vacuum. Even if Vafa and Witten’s conjecture is plausible, actually a theorem is still lacking.

About the Realization of Chiral Symmetry in Qcd * 2
Two dimensional massless Quantum Chromodynamics presents many features which resemble those of the true theory. In particular the spectrum consists of mesons and baryons arranged in flavor multiplets without parity doubling. We analyze the implications of chiral symmetry, which is not spontaneously broken in two dimensions, in the spectrum and in the quark condensate. We study how parity doubli...
متن کاملParity Doubling Among the Baryons
We study the evidence for and possible origins of parity doubling among the baryons. First we explore the experimental evidence, finding a significant signal for parity doubling in the non-strange baryons, but little evidence among strange baryons. Next we discuss potential explanations for this phenomenon. Possibilities include suppression of the violation of the flavor singlet axial symmetry ...

We investigate the finite-temperature phase structure and the scaling of the chiral condensate in lattice QCD with two degenerate light quarks, using a renormalization group improved gauge action and the Wilson quark action. We obtain a phase diagram which is consistent with that from the parity-flavor breaking scenario. The scaling relation for the chiral condensate assuming the critical expon...
متن کاملPenta-quark baryon from the QCD Sum Rule
Exotic penta-quark baryon with strangeness +1, Θ, is studied in the QCD sum rule approach. We derive sum rules for the positive and negative parity baryon states with J = 1 2 and I = 0. It is found that the standard values of the QCD condensates predict a negative parity Θ of mass ≃ 1.5 GeV, while no positive parity state is found. We stress the roles of chiral-odd condensates in determining th...
متن کاملNegative-Parity Baryons in Quenched Anisotropic Lattice QCD
We study negative-parity baryon spectra in quenched anisotropic lattice QCD. The negative-parity baryons are measured as the parity partner of the ground-state baryons. In addition to the flavor octet and decuplet baryons, we pay much attention to the flavorsinglet negative-parity baryon as a three-quark state and compare it with the Λ(1405) baryon. Numerical results of the flavor octet and dec...
