Equations from non-linear chiral transformations

In comparison with theWT chiral identity which is indispensable for renormalization theory, relations deduced from the non-linear chiral transformation have a totally different physical significance. We wish to show that non-linear chiral transformations are powerful tools to deduce useful integral equations for propagators. In contrast to the case of linear chiral transformations, identities derived from non-linear ones contain more involved radiative effects and are rich in physical content. To demonstrate this fact we apply the simplest non-linear chiral transformation to the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model, and show how our identity is related to the Dyson-Schwinger equation and Bethe-Salpeter amplitudes of the Higgs and π. Unlike equations obtained from the effective potential, our resultant equation is exact and can be used for events beyond the LEP energy.
