We discuss a renormalization scheme for manifestly Lorentz-invariant baryon chiral perturbation theory generating a simple and consistent power counting for renormalized diagrams. The approach may be used in an iterative procedure to renormalize higher-order loop diagrams and also allows for implementing a consistent power counting when vector mesons are explicitly included.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2005-09-19T10:27:15.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "lorentz-invariant baryon chiral perturbation theory", "manifestly lorentz-invariant baryon chiral perturbation", "effective field theory program", "consistent power counting", "chiral perturbation theory generating" ], "tags": [ "conference paper", "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1142/S0217751X06032228", "journal": "International Journal of Modern Physics A", "year": 2006, "volume": 21, "number": 4, "pages": 881 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 692603, "adsabs": "2006IJMPA..21..881S" } } }
