Description

Chiral perturbation theory provides a systematic large volume expansion in powers of 1/Ld-2, where L=V1/d is the size of the system and d>2 is the dimension. Different observables, including the transversal and longitudinal two-point functions, are calculated up to order (1/Ld-2)2. In the scaling region the results can be used to control the finite-size effects in numerical simulations. (orig.)
