Abstract
We calculate mesonic two-point functions in the {epsilon}-regime of two-flavor QCD on the lattice with exact chiral symmetry. We use gauge configurations of size 16{sup 3}x32 at a{approx}0.11 fm generated with dynamical overlap fermions. The sea quark mass is fixed at around 3 MeV and the valence quark mass is varied in the range 1-4 MeV, both of which are in the {epsilon}-regime. We find a good consistency with the expectations from the next-to-leading order calculation in the {epsilon}-expansion of (partially quenched) chiral perturbation theory. From a fit we obtain the pion decay constant F=87.3(5.6) MeV and the chiral condensate {sigma}{sup MS}=[239.8(4.0) MeV]{sup 3} up to next-to-next-to-leading order contributions.
