In this project, we employ the short-distance factorization to compute the distribution amplitude of the $\eta_c$-meson from Lattice QCD at leading twist. We employ a set of CLS $N_f=2$ ensembles at three lattice spacings and various quark…
We improve the perturbative QCD (PQCD) formalism for multi-body charmless hadronic $B$ meson decays, such as $B\to VP_3\to P_1P_2P_3$, by resolving the possible discrepancy in parametrizing the contribution of the $P$-wave resonance $V$ to…
New sum rules for $B\to \pi,K $ and $B\to \rho,K^*$ form factors are derived from the correlation functions expanded near the light-cone in terms of B-meson distribution amplitudes. The contributions of quark-antiquark and…
Sum rules for twist-3 distributions are reexamined. Integral relations between twist-3 and twist-2 parton distributions suggest the possibility for a $\delta$-function at $x=0$. We confirm and clarify this result by constructing $h_L$ and…
In the paper, we derive the $\xi$-moments $\langle\xi_{2;b_1}^{n;\|}\rangle$ of the longitudinal leading-twist distribution amplitude $\phi_{2;b_1}^{\|}$ for $^1P_1$-state $b_1(1235)$-meson by using the QCD sum rules under the background…
In this paper, we carry on an investigation of the semileptonic decays $B_s\to D_s^*\ell \bar\nu_{\ell}$. Firstly, we derive the moments of the $D_s^*$-meson longitudinal leading-twist light-cone distribution amplitude (LCDA) based on QCD…
Considering the gluon condensate corrections, the form factors relevant to the semileptonic rare $B_c \rar D,D_s(J^{P}=0^{-}) l^{+}l^{-}$ with $l=\tau,\mu,e$ and $B_c \rar D,D_s(J^{P}=0^{-})\nu\bar{\nu}$ transitions are calculated in the…
A systematic analysis shows that the main uncertainties in the form factors are due to the twist-3 wave functions of the light mesons in the light-cone QCD sum rules. We propose an improved approach, in which the twist-3 wave functions…
We present a new calculation of the B->pi form-factor f_+, relevant for the measurement of |V_{ub}| from semileptonic B->pi transitions, from QCD sum rules on the light-cone. The new element is the calculation of radiative corrections to…

Third-order pseudo-transitions in finite systems reflect reorganization beyond conventional criticality, yet their identification usually relies on microcanonical entropy, which is often inaccessible in practice. Here we introduce a…
In my talk I discuss the theoretical and experimental status of the pion distribution amplitude (DA). I show that the QCD sum rule method with nonlocal condensates (NLC) for the pion DA gives us admissible sets (bunches) of DAs for each…
We analyze the higher-twist effects and the SU(3)-flavour symmetry breaking in the correlation functions used to calculate form factors of pseudoscalar mesons in the QCD light-cone sum rule approach. It is shown that the Ward identities for…

The pion distribution amplitude (DA) can be related to the fundamental QCD Green's functions as a function of the quark self-energy and the quark-pion vertex, which in turn are associated with the pion wave function through the…
In the paper, we show that the $B\to\pi$ transition form factor can be calculated by using the different approach in the different $q^2$ regions and they are consistent with each other in the whole physical region. For the $B\to\pi$…
