“When you use quantum field theory to study low-energy phenomena, then according to the folk theorem you’re not really making any assumption that could be wrong, unless of course Lorentz invariance or quantum mechanics or cluster decomposition is wrong, provided you don’t say specifically what the Lagrangian is. As long as you let it be the most general possible Lagrangian consistent with the symmetries of the theory, you’re simply writing down the most general theory you could possibly write down.
Weinberg Folk Theorem
![Page 3: Mannque Rho Saclay What the Skyrmion Predicts in Dense Baryonic Matter that Perturbation Theory Does Not Changchun October, 2014](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649eeb5503460f94bfcdd2/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Effective field theory was first used in this way to calculate processes involving soft mesons, that is, mesons with energy less than about F =1200 MeV. The use of effective quantum field theories has been extended more recently to nuclear physics, where although nucleons are not soft they never get far from their mass shell, and for that reason can be also treated by similar methods as the soft pions.
![Page 4: Mannque Rho Saclay What the Skyrmion Predicts in Dense Baryonic Matter that Perturbation Theory Does Not Changchun October, 2014](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649eeb5503460f94bfcdd2/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Nuclear physicists have adopted this point of view, and I gather that they are happy about using this new language because it allows one to show in a fairly convincing way that what they’ve been doing all along (using two-body potentials only, including one-pion exchange and a hard core) is the correct first step in a consistent approximation scheme.”

What’s accurately known at E 0 MeV
Current algebra: Soft pion theoremsFor pion-pion and pion-nucleon interactions
![Page 6: Mannque Rho Saclay What the Skyrmion Predicts in Dense Baryonic Matter that Perturbation Theory Does Not Changchun October, 2014](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649eeb5503460f94bfcdd2/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
From soft pions to vector mesons
At E ≈ 0 , Soft pion/current algebra applies:
Invariance:
This local symmetry is “redundant” and arbitrary, sothere is no physics by itself. But power comes with a trick. (Emergent) Hidden Local Symmetry (HLS)
Observe
![Page 7: Mannque Rho Saclay What the Skyrmion Predicts in Dense Baryonic Matter that Perturbation Theory Does Not Changchun October, 2014](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649eeb5503460f94bfcdd2/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Going to the next energy scale, E ≈ mV , V=(and a1)
Pions interact with a strong coupling and the currentalgebra Lagrangian breaks down at a scale4mV/gV) ~ 4fsignaling that new degrees of freedom – the vector mesons – must figure.
How to bring in the vector degrees of freedom require an ingenuity.
Naively:
But this is a mess and hopeless at high order.
Cleverly, implement local gauge invariance:
e.g. U
![Page 8: Mannque Rho Saclay What the Skyrmion Predicts in Dense Baryonic Matter that Perturbation Theory Does Not Changchun October, 2014](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649eeb5503460f94bfcdd2/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Most importantly local gauge invariance allows a systematicPT expansion for mV ≈ m≈ 0. Without it, no way to handlemassless vector mesons.
The strategy: Exploit the redundant degrees of freedomto render the vector mesons emergent as local gauge fieldsand have them propagate HLS theory
Caveat: Elevating EFT to a gauge field theory is NOTunique. Without gauge invariance it’s even worse!!

HLS à la Harada-YamawakiHarada and Yamawaki 2001
Although the formulas look complicated, the idea is simpleand elegant and the prediction unambiguous.
Degrees of freedom: with NF=2 or 3.
HLS Lagrangian in the chiral limit: 3 parameters g (gauge coupling), F and For (g, Fa≡ (F/F)2)
(“Truncated tower”)

The crucial next step is to Wilsonian-match HLS correlatorsto QCD correlators (OPE) at the matching scale ≥ m
The RGE flow picks the VM (“vector manifestation”) fixed point as rep. of QCD.
“VM”=(g=0, a=1)
We are sure that this theory has something to do with QCD!But is it complete?? Perhaps not??

How to approach dense baryonic system à la W theorem”
1. Baryons as skyrmions: multi-skyrmion system (e.g., skyrmion crystal)

Relativistic Mean Field ↔ Landau-Fermi Liquid
Take or equivalently , do the mean-fieldapproximation ↔ Landau-Fermi-liquid theory.
Reasoning: The mean field of the Lagrangian corresponds to a “Kohn-Sham” density functional(KSDF) which gives the Fermi-liquid fixed pointtheory.

What’s been accomplishedPions: interacting with the protons and neutrons subject to chiral symmetry with small symmetrybreaking.Derive KSDF from chiral Lagrangian Present industry in nuclear physics.
Aim: To go from chiral Lagrangian to nuclear forcesto nuclei to nuclear matter density (n0) then to >> n0
e.g. 1.97 Msun with density ~ 6n0
Success: ~ 2000 nuclei with RMS deviation ~ ½ MeV, up to ~ n0 Price to pay: ~ 50 parameters
Higher density: unknown, QCD uncontrollable.

What PT cannot do: Topology Skyrmions on Crystal
Topology changes at high density, with the skyrmion fractionizing into ½- skyrmions.
Drastic effect on the nuclear tensor forces: Dispute between Brown and Weinberg (1990).
Parity-doublet symmetry “emerges” at high density: Nucleon mass in medium has two components, i.e.,
m*N =m0 + m0 as
Could lead to Fermi-liquid-to-non-Fermi liquid transition, invalidating RMF theory at high density?

Predictions
Skyrmions on crystal make certain predictions that are not in standard nuclear field theory based on chiral symmetry. We would like to see whether thesepredictions are (1) trustworthy (or falsifiable) and (2) presaging new physics.
Can be tested in future accelerators, “RAON” (Korea),FAIR (Darmstandt) …and LIGO (GW), …
What about other skyrmion approaches, such asholographic dual, BPS etc.?

Puzzles and Questions Where does the proton mass come from? Cheshire Cat: Topology (skyrmion, half-skyrmion), quark-bag, BPS, … Who does the “translation”? How does the skyrmion know about shell model? e.g., Hoyle state. BPS puzzle: In Walecka picture, the small BE of nuclear matter is given by
This is supported by the QCD sum rules. How does the BPS encapsulate this huge cancellation ?
