The QCD coupling $\alpha_s$ is the most important parameter for achieving precise QCD predictions. By using the well measured effective coupling $\alpha^{g_1}_{s}(Q)$ defined from the Bjorken sum rules as a basis, we suggest a novel and…
Analytic QCD models are those where the QCD running coupling has the physically correct analytic behavior, i.e., no Landau singularities in the Euclidean regime. We present a simple analytic QCD model in which the discontinuity function of…
Nonperturbative studies of the strong running coupling constant in the infrared region are discussed. Starting from the analyses of the Dyson -- Schwinger equations in the gauge sector of QCD, the conclusion is made on an incomplete fixing…

Defect concentrations in semiconductors are strongly influenced by thermal history during growth and cooldown, yet most defect calculations assume either instantaneous quenching from high temperature or that full-equilibrium is maintained -…
Analytic versions of QCD are those whose coupling alpha_s(Q^2) does not have the unphysical Landau singularities on the space-like axis (-q^2=Q^2 > 0). The coupling is analytic in the entire complex plane except the time-like axis (Q^2 <…
We present a new determination of the strong coupling constant from lattice QCD simulations. We use four different short-distance quantities to obtain the coupling, three different (infrared) meson splittings to tune the simulation…
We try to review the main current ideas and points of view on the running coupling constant in QCD. We begin by recalling briefly the classic analysis based on the Renormalization Group with some emphasis on the exact solutions of the RG…

The new result for the third-order QCD corrections to R_{e^+e^-}, unlike the old, incorrect result, is nicely compatible with the principle-of-minimal-sensitivity optimization method. Moreover, it leads to infrared fixed-point behaviour:…
Using the ``Quality Factor'' (QF) method, we analyse the scaling properties of deep-inelastic processes at HERA and fixed target experiments for x<0.01. We look for scaling formulae of the form sigma(tau), where tau(log Q^2, Y) is a scaling…
Statistical inference is central to many scientific endeavors, yet how it works remains unresolved. Answering this requires a quantitative understanding of the intrinsic interplay between statistical models, inference methods and data…
The QCD running coupling $\alpha_s(Q^2)$ sets the strength of the interactions of quarks and gluons as a function of the momentum transfer $Q$. The $Q^2$ dependence of the coupling is required to describe hadronic interactions at both large…
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…
