Abstract
The decays omega -> 2pi^+ 2pi^- pi^0 and omega -> pi^+ pi^- 3pi^0 are reconsidered in the hidden local symmetry approach (HLS) added with the anomalous terms. The decay amplitudes are analyzed in detail, paying the special attention to the Adler condition of vanishing the whole amplitude at vanishing momentum of any final pion. Combining the Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka (OZI) rule applied to the five pion final state, with the Adler condition, we calculate also the phi -> 2pi^+ 2pi^-pi^0 and phi -> pi^+ pi^- 3pi^0 decay amplitudes. The partial widths of the above decays are evaluated, and the excitation curves in e^+e^- annihilation are obtained, assuming reasonable particular relations among the parameters characterizing the anomalous terms of the HLS Lagrangian. The evaluated branching ratios B(phi -> pi^+ pi^- 3pi^0)~2x10^{-7} and B(phi -> 2pi^+ 2pi^- pi^0)~7x10^{-7} are such that with the luminosity L=500 pb^{-1} attained at DAFNE phi factory, one may already possess about 1685 events of the decays phi -> 5pi.
