Abstract

Changes in the meson-nucleon coupling constant and the vertex form factor in nuclear matter are studied in a modified Skyrme Lagrangian including the σ-meson field that satisfies the scale invariance. Renormalization of g A , the axial-vector coupling constant, and the nucleon mass are studied in a consistent model. The results are in good agreement with the empirical evidence. A calculation of the π- N commutator, Σ-term, indicates that the medium changes its magnitude considerably.
