Abstract
Quark-condensate contributions to , the quark mass generated by the dynamical breakdown of chiral symmetry, are shown to arise from only the first two terms of the operator-product expansion (OPE) for the appropriate nonperturbative vacuum expectation value. Since the expansion parameter of the OPE is unity on the gauge-invariant propagator pole, such truncation of OPE contributions is an essential support to the calculation of .
