The renormalization-group improved finite order expansions of the QCD observables have an unphysical singularity in the Euclidean region, due to the Landau pole of the running coupling. Recently it was claimed that, by using a modified…
We consider the one-chain term in a skeleton expansion for Euclidean QCD observables. Focusing on the particular example of the Adler D function, we show that although there is a Landau pole in the coupling at Q^2=\Lambda^2 which renders…
We consider the leading one-chain term in a skeleton expansion for QCD observables and show that for energies Q^2>\Lambda^2, where Q^2=\Lambda^2 is the Landau pole in the coupling, the skeleton expansion result is equivalent to the standard…
The infrared freezing of observables is known to hold at fixed orders of perturbative QCD if the Minkowskian quantities are defined through the analytic continuation from the Euclidean region. In a recent paper [1] it is claimed that…
A variant of QCD with the coupling suppressed in the infrared (IR) regime, as suggested by large-volume lattice calculations of the Landau-gauge gluon and ghost dressing functions, is considered. The coupling is further restricted by the…
We examine the large-order behaviour of a recently proposed renormalization-group-improved expansion of the Adler function in perturbative QCD, which sums in an analytically closed form the leading logarithms accessible from…
The conventional series in powers of the coupling in perturbative QCD have zero radius of convergence and fail to reproduce the singularity of the QCD correlators like the Adler function at $\alpha_s=0$. Using the technique of conformal…
We give a short review of our recent analysis [1] of the deep inelastic scattering data (provided by BCDMS, SLAC, NMC) on F2 structure function in the non-singlet approximation with up to next-to-next-to-leading-order accuracy and analytic…
Deep inelastic scattering data on the F_2 structure function provided by the BCDMS, SLAC and NMC collaborations are analyzed in the non-singlet approximation with the analytic and "frozen" modifications of the strong coupling constant…
We discuss the model $\bar{\alpha}_{an}(Q^2)$ recently proposed for the QCD running coupling $\bar{\alpha}_s(Q^2)$ in the Euclidean domain on the basis of the "asymptotic-freedom" expression and on causality condition in the form of the…
An analytic ghost-free model for the QCD running coupling $\alpha(Q^2)$ is proposed. It is constructed from a more general approach we developed particularly for investigating physical observables of the type $F(Q^2)$ in regions that are…
In these lectures we give a concise introduction to the ideas of renormalon calculus in QED and QCD. We focus in particular on the example of the Adler D function of vacuum polarization, and on relations between perturbative renormalon…
The low energy behavior of a recently proposed model for the massive analytic running coupling of QCD is studied. This running coupling has no unphysical singularities, and in the absence of masses displays infrared enhancement. The…
We discuss whether or not "freezing" of the QCD running coupling constant in the infrared region is consistent with the Schwinger -- Dyson (SD) equations. Since the consistency of the "freezing" was not found, the conclusion is made that…
We present two variants of an approach for evaluation of observables in analytic QCD models. The approach is motivated by the skeleton expansion in a certain class of schemes. We then evaluate the Adler function at low energies in one…
We address several aspects of lattice QCD calculations of the hadronic vacuum polarization and the associated Adler function. We implement a representation derived previously which allows one to access these phenomenologically important…
We investigate a large class of perturbative QCD (pQCD) renormalization schemes whose beta functions $\beta(a)$ are meromorphic functions of the running coupling and give finite positive value of the coupling $a(Q^2)$ in the infrared regime…
Using a full resummation of the Adler function in the large-$\beta_0$ approximation of QCD and a mathematical framework of resurgence suitable for the specific properties of the Borel transform in this particular case, we derive a compact…
Starting from the divergent character of the perturbative expansions in QCD and using the technique of series acceleration by the conformal mappings of the Borel plane, I define a novel, non-power perturbative expansion for the Adler…
We argue that the appearance of the Landau pole in the running coupling of QCD introduces 1/Q^2 power corrections in current correlation functions. These terms are not accounted for by the standard operator product expansion and is the…
