Note on Nonlinear Realizations of Chiral Symmetry.

William Sollfrey

Expert InsightsPublished 1968

The general solution is found for Weinberg's differential equation for the Lagrangian of chiral symmetry breaking. The result is an elementary function, and, in the particular case of a tensor of rank 2, the effect of the nonlinearity is to multiply the ordinary Lagrangian by a simple factor. 3 pp.
