Under the assumption of Abelian dominance in QCD, we have shown that chiral condensate is locally present around each QCD monopole. The essence is that either charge or chirality of a quark is not conserved, when the low energy massless quark collides with QCD monopole. In reality, the charge is conserved so that the chirality is not conserved. Reviewing the presence of the local chiral condensate, we show by using chiral anomaly that chiral nonsymmetric quark pair production takes place when a color charge is putted in a vacuum with monopole condensation, while chiral symmetric pair production takes place in a vacuum with no monopole condensation. Our results strongly indicate that the chiral symmetry is broken by the monopole condensation.

Confinement and spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry are assumed to generate the governing degrees of freedom of low-energy quantum chromodynamics. On this basis a relativistic constituent-quark model is constructed and formulated along an invariant mass operator within Poincaré-invariant quantum mechanics. The model is effectively applied to the spectroscopy of all known baryons of flavors u, d, s, c and b. The mass-operator eigenstates are furthermore tested with regard to the baryon electromagnetic and axial form factors. Through using the point form of relativistic quantum mechanics, these observables are obtained in a manifestly covariant manner. For all light and strange baryon ground states the electroweak structures are reproduced either in good agreement with phenomenology or, if no experimental data exist, in consistency with results available from lattice quantum chromodynamics. It is concluded that the relativistic constituent-quark model, relying on {QQQ} Fock states only, provides a universal framework for the description of low-energy baryons. The most important ingredients are spontaneous chiral-symmetry breaking and strict relativistic invariance.

Scale factor matrices relating mesonic fields in chiral Lagrangians and quark-level operators of QCD sum-rules are shown to be constrained by chiral symmetry, resulting in universal scale factors for each chiral nonet. Built upon this interplay between chiral Lagrangians and QCD sum-rules, the scale factors relating the [Formula: see text] isotriplet scalar mesons to their underlying composite quark fields were recently determined. It is shown that the same technique when applied to [Formula: see text] isodoublet scalars reproduces the same scale factors, confirming the universality property and further validating this connection between chiral Lagrangians and QCD sum-rules, which can have nontrivial impacts on our understanding of the low-energy QCD, in general, and the physics of scalar mesons in particular.

We present the effective chiral Lagrangian of mesons (peusodoscalars, vectors and axial-vectors) obtained in the chiral limit by using two approaches. The first approach is based on symmetries: the explicit global chiral symmetry and hidden local chiral symmetry. In this approach, it is noticed that there are in general fourteen interacting terms up to the dimension-four of covariant derivative for meson fields rather than the usual eleven interacting terms given in literature from hidden local symmetry approach. Of particular, the additional terms are found to be very important for understanding the vector meson dominance and providing consistent predictions on the decay rates of a1 → γπ and a1 → ρπ as well as for resulting a consistent effective chiral Lagrangian with chiral perturbation theory. The second approach is motivated from the chiral symmetry of chiral quarks and the bound state solutions of nonperturbative QCD at low energy and large Nc. The second approach is more fundamental in the sense that it is based on the QCD Lagrangian of quarks and only relies on two basic parameters in addition to the ones in the standard model. As a consequence, it allows us to extract, in terms of only two basic parameters, all the fourteen parameters in the more general effective Lagrangian constructed from symmetries in the first approach. It is surprising to note that except the necessity of three additional new interacting terms introduced in this paper, the resulting values of the coupling constants for other three interacting terms at the dimension-four are also quite different from the ones given in the literature. It is likely that the structures of the effective chiral Lagrangian for the dimension-four given in the literatures by using hidden local symmetry are incomplete and consequently the resulting coulpings are not reliable. It is shown that the more general effective chiral Lagrangian given in the present paper shall provide a more consistent prediction for all the low energy phenomenology of ρ - a1 system and result in a more consistent description on the low energy behavior of light flavor mesons. Its fourteen parameters up to the dimension-four of covariant derivative may be uniquely determined from the effective chiral theory based on the second approach, which is consistent with the chiral perturbation theory.
