Abstract

We systematically investigate tri-local (non-local) three-quark baryon fields with U L (2)×U R (2) chiral symmetry, according to their Lorentz and isospin (flavor) group representations. We note that they can also be called “nucleon wave functions” due to this full non-locality. We study their chiral transformation properties and find all the possible chiral multiplets consisting of \(J=\frac{1}{2}\) and \(J=\frac{3}{2}\) baryon fields. We find that the axial coupling constant \(|g_{A}| = \frac{5}{3}\) is only for nucleon fields belonging to the chiral representation \((\frac{1}{2},1) \oplus(1,\frac{1}{2})\), which contains both nucleon and Δ fields. Moreover, all the nucleon fields belonging to this representation have \(|g_{A}| = \frac{5}{3}\).
