Structure of large [formula presented] cancellations in baryon chiral perturbation theory
We show how to compute loop graphs in heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory including the full functional dependence on the ratio of the (Formula presented)-nucleon mass difference to the pion mass, while at the same time automatically incorporating the (Formula presented) cancellations that follow from the large-(Formula presented) spin-flavor symmetry of baryons in QCD. The one-loop renormalization of the baryon axial vector current is studied to demonstrate the procedure. A new cancellation is identified in the one-loop contribution to the baryon axial vector current. We show that loop corrections to the axial vector currents are exceptionally sensitive to deviations of the ratios of baryon-pion axial vector couplings from (Formula presented) values. © 2000 The American Physical Society.
