Extended chiral Group and Scalar Diquarks [PDF]
arXiv, 1999 We introduce extended chiral transformation, which depends both on pseudoscalar and diquark fields as parameters and determine its group structure. Assuming soft symmetry breaking in diquark sector, bosonisation of a quasi-Goldstone $ud$-diquark is performed.
