Anomaly constraint on massless QCD and the role of Skyrmions in chiral symmetry breaking
Abstract We discuss consequences of the ’t Hooft anomaly matching condition for Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) with massless fundamental quarks. We derive the new discrete ’t Hooft anomaly of massless QCD for generic numbers of color N c and flavor N f , and an exotic chiral-symmetry broken phase with...
