[en] We review the non-leptonic weak decay of hyperons and ΔI=1/2 rule with a special emphasis on the role of chiral symmetry. The soft-pion theorem provides a powerful framework to understand the origin of ΔI=1/2 rule qualitatively. However, quantitative description is still incomplete in any model of the hadrons. Naive chiral perturbation theory cannot explain the parity-conserving and violating amplitudes simultaneously, and convergence of the chiral expansion seems to be worse. We demonstrate how the non-leptonic weak decay amplitudes are sensitive to the quark-pair correlation in the baryons, and show the importance of the strong quark correlation in the spin-0 channel to reproduce the experimental data. We finally remark several related topics. (author)
