perturbation theory: higher-order

One-loop Chiral Perturbation Theory with two fermion representations

We develop chiral perturbation theory for chirally broken theories with fermions in two different representations of the gauge group. Any such theory has a nonanomalous singlet U(1)A symmetry, yielding an additional Nambu-Goldstone boson when …

Lattice Study of Conformal Behavior in SU(3) Yang-Mills Theories

Using lattice simulations, we study the extent of the conformal window for an SU(3) gauge theory with N_f Dirac fermions in the fundamental representation. We extend our recently reported work, describing the general framework and the lattice …
