I discuss the standard SVZ-expansion of the QCD two-point correlators in terms of the QCD vacuum condensates and beyond it due to a new unflavoured 1/Q^2-term (tachyonic gluon mass squared \lambda^2) which modelizes the effects of…
We consider the assumption that a tachyonic gluon mass imitates short-distance nonperturbative physics of QCD. The phenomenological implications include modifications of the QCD sum rules for correlators of currents with various quantum…
In holographic QCD the effects of gluonic condensate can be encoded in a suitable deformation of the 5D metric. We develop two different methods for the evaluation of first order perturbative corrections to masses and decay constants of…
We investigate the AdS/QCD duality for the two-point correlation functions of the lowest dimension scalar meson and scalar glueball operators, in the case of the Soft Wall holographic model of QCD. Masses and decay constants as well as…
In this talk, I review the determinations of the QCD condensates and $\alpha_s$ within the SVZ expansion using the ratio of Laplace sum rule (LSR) and $\tau$-like moments in $e^+e^-\to I=1$ Hadrons and in $\tau\to \nu_\tau+$Hadrons…
We derive and analyze predictions of both the hard-wall and dilaton soft-wall AdS/QCD approximations for the scalar glueball correlator and decay constants. We confront the results with QCD information from the lattice, the operator product…
We derive and systematically analyze scalar glueball correlation functions in both the hard-wall and dilaton soft-wall approximations to holographic QCD. The dynamical content of the holographic correlators is uncovered by examining their…

Continuum and lattice analyses have revealed the existence of a mass-scale in the gluon two-point Schwinger function. It has long been conjectured that this expresses the action of a Schwinger mechanism for gauge boson mass generation in…
The scalar glueball is investigated in a soft-wall model of AdS/QCD. Constraints of the mass of the scalar glueball are given through an analysis of a relation between the bulk mass and the anomalous dimension. The mass of the ground scalar…
Holographic QCD reproduces the leading short-distance vector-current two-point function in vacuum, fixing the bulk gauge coupling by matching the logarithmic $Q^2$ dependence of the boundary current correlator. We show that this vacuum…
We revisit, scrutinize, improve, confirm and complete our previous results [1-3] from the scalar di-gluonium sum rules within the standard SVZ-expansion at N2LO without instantons and beyond the minimal duality ansatz : "one resonance + QCD…
We consider the soft-wall holographic model with the linear dilaton background. The model leads to a Hydrogen-like meson spectrum which can be interpreted as the static limit with very large quark masses when the Coulomb interaction…
We present a direct derivation of the two-point correlation function of the vector current in the soft wall model by using the AdS/CFT dictionary. The resulting correlator is exactly the same as the one previously obtained from dispersion…
The world-line formalism is used for the evaluation of the mixed heavy-quark-gluon condensate in two models of QCD - the stochastic vacuum model and the dual superconductor one. Calculations are performed for an arbitrary dimensionality of…
We study the phenomenology of the recently proposed modified version of the Soft-Wall model of holographic QCD with a negative dilaton profile. We investigate vector and scalar mesons, evaluating mass spectra, decay constants and two-point…
Phenomenological AdS/QCD models, like hard wall and soft wall, provide hadronic mass spectra in reasonable consistency with experimental and (or) lattice results. These simple models are inspired in the AdS/CFT correspondence and assume…
We propose a new type of bottom-up holographic model describing the Regge like spectrum of mesons. This type of spectrum emerges due to condensation of a scalar field in the bulk anti-de Sitter space. The gauge invariance of the action…
The gluon spin coupling to a Gaussian correlated background gauge field induces an effective tachyonic gluon mass. It is momentum dependent and vanishes in the UV only like 1/p^2. In the IR, we obtain stabilization through a positive…
A simple holographic model is presented and analyzed that describes chiral symmetry breaking and the physics of the meson sector in QCD. This is a bottom-up model that incorporates string theory ingredients like tachyon condensation which…
