Adopting hyperon-nucleon and hyperon-nucleon-nucleon interactions parametrized in chiral effective field theory, single-particle potentials of the $Lambda$ and $Sigma$ hyperons are evaluated in symmetric nuclear matter and in pure neutron matter within the framework of lowest order Bruckner theory. The chiral NLO interaction bears strong $Lambda$N-$Sigma$N coupling. Although the $Lambda$ potential is repulsive if the coupling is switched off, the $Lambda$N-$Sigma$N correlation brings about the attraction consistent with empirical data. The $Sigma$ potential is repulsive, which is also consistent with empirical information. The interesting result is that the $Lambda$ potential becomes shallower beyond normal density. This provides the possibility to solve the hyperon puzzle without introducing ad hoc assumptions. The effects of the $Lambda$NN-$Lambda$NN and $Lambda$NN-$Sigma$NN three-baryon forces are considered. These three-baryon forces are first reduced to normal-ordered effective two-baryon interactions in nuclear matter and then incorporated in the $G$-matrix equation. The repulsion from the $Lambda$NN-$Lambda$NN interaction is of the order of 5 MeV at the normal density, and becomes larger with increasing the density. The effects of the $Lambda$NN-$Sigma$NN coupling compensate the repulsion at normal density. The net effect of the three-baryon interactions to the $Lambda$ single-particle potential is repulsive at higher densities.

The $Xi$ single-particle potential obtained in nuclear matter with the next-to-leading order baryon-baryon interactions in chiral effective field theory is applied to finite nuclei by an improved local-density approximation method. As a premise, phase shifts of $Xi N$ elastic scattering and the results of Faddeev calculations for the $Xi NN$ bound state problem are presented to show the properties of the $Xi N$ interactions in the present parametrization. First, the $Xi$ states in $^{14}$N are revisited because of the recent experimental progress, including the discussion on the $Xi N$ spin-orbit interaction that is relevant to the location of the $p$-state. Then the $Xi$ levels in $^{56}$Fe are calculated. In particular, the level shift which is expected to be measured experimentally in the near future is predicted. The smallness of the imaginary part of the $Xi$ single-particle potential is explicitly demonstrated.
The effective chiral theory of the in-medium NN interactions is considered. The shallow bound states, which complicate the effective field theory analysis in vacuum do not exist in matter. We show that the next-to-leading order terms in the chiral expansion of the effective Lagrangian can be interpreted as corrections so that the expansion is systematic. The Low Energy Effective Constants of this Lagrangian are found to satisfy the concept of naturalness. The potential energy per particle is calculated. The problems and challenges in constructing the chiral theory of nuclear matter are outlined.
We derive from the subleading contributions to the chiral three-nucleon interaction [published in Phys.~Rev.~C77, 064004 (2008) and Phys.~Rev.~C84, 054001 (2011)] their first-order contributions to the energy per particle of isospin-symmetric nuclear matter and pure neutron matter in an analytical way. For the variety of short-range and long-range terms that constitute the subleading chiral 3N-force the pertinent closed 3-ring, 2-ring, and 1-ring diagrams are evaluated. While 3-ring diagrams vanish by a spin-trace and the results for 2-ring diagrams can be given in terms of elementary functions of the ratio Fermi-momentum over pion mass, one ends up in most cases for the closed 1-ring diagrams with one-parameter integrals. The same treatment is applied to the subsubleading chiral three-nucleon interactions as far as these have been constructed up to now.
We report on the recent studies of leading order baryon-baryon interactions in covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory. In the strangeness $S=0$ sector, one can achieve a rather good description of the Nijmegen $np$ phase shifts with angular momenta $Jleq 1$, particularly the $^1S_0$ and $^3P_0$ partial waves, comparable with the next-to-leading order (NLO) heavy baryon approach. In the strangeness $S=-1$ hyperon-nucleon sector, the best fit of the 36 scattering data is similar to the sophisticated phenomenological models and the NLO heavy baryon approach.
We present a study of the symmetry energy (a_s) and its slope parameter (L) of nuclear matter in the general framework of the Landau-Migdal theory. We derive an exact relation between a_s and L, which involves the nucleon effective mass and three-particle Landau-Migdal parameters. We also present simple estimates which show that there are two main mechanisms to explain the empirical values of L: The proton-neutron effective mass difference in isospin asymmetric matter, and the isovector three-body Landau-Migdal parameter H_0. We give simple estimates of both effects and show that they are of similar magnitude.
