Quark masses and strong CP violation
Abstract
Two flavor QCD involves three independent mass parameters for which non-perturbative effects are not universal. This precludes matching lattice and perturbative results for non-degenerate quarks and eliminates a vanishing up quark mass as a viable solution to the strong CP problem.
