After reviewing basic facts about large-order behaviour of perturbation expansions in various fields of physics, I consider several alternatives to the Borel summation method and discuss their relevance to different physical situations.…
The large-beta_0 limit of QCD is discussed, with the emphasize on simple technical methods of calculating various quantities at the order 1/\beta_0. Many examples, mainly from heavy quark physics, are considered. Some QCD results based on…
Motivated by the recently constructed interpolation field for S$_{11}$(1535), we propose a new interpolating field for $\Lambda$(1405). Using this current, we calculate the mass of $\Lambda$(1405) based on the conventional QCD sum rule…
We introduce a new massive renormalization scheme, denoted mSMOM, as a modification of the existing RI/SMOM scheme. We use SMOM for defining renormalized fermion bilinears in QCD at non-vanishing fermion mass. This scheme has properties…
The $b \to c$ semileptonic sum rules provide relations between the decay rates of $B \to D^{(*)} \tau\bar\nu$ and $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c \tau\bar\nu$. Starting from the heavy quark and zero-recoil limits, we revisit the derivation of the…
We summarize the results obtained for the quark masses (u,d,s,c, and b) in Refs.~\cite{AlamKhan:2023ili,AlamKhan:2023kgs} and strong coupling ($\alpha_s$) using renormalization group (RG) improvement of the theoretical expressions and…
This paper is an enhanced version of a more than decade-older paper with a similar title. Many formulae involving both finite and infinite sums of digamma and polygamma functions up to quadratic order, few of which appear in standard…
Taking the example of the most popular and well-established Borel / Laplace / Exponential sum rule (LSR), I shortly review some of its recent applications in hadron physics namely the estimates of non-perturbative condensates, the…
In a recent paper \cite{benayoun} M.Benayoun {\it et al.} use a specific model to compare results on the existing data for the cross section of the process $e^+e^-\rightarrow \pi^+\pi^-$ and state conclusions about the inconsistency of the…
Comments on the article "Pulsar dynamics: magnetic dipole model revisited".
New relations between QCD Borel sum rules for magnetic moments of Sigma^0 and Lambda hyperons are constructed. It is shown that starting from the sum rule for the Sigma^0 hyperon magnetic moment it is straightforward to obtain the…
The QCD sum rule approach to in-medium modifications of the omega meson in nuclear matter is reviewed with emphasis of its relation to 4-quark condensates and chiral symmetry restoration. Possible implications of the CB-TAPS experiment for…
Neutrino mass sum rules are an important class of predictions in flavour models relating the Majorana phases to the neutrino masses. This leads, for instance, to enormous restrictions on the effective mass as probed in experiments on…
The calculations of masses and decay constants of the radial excitations of light pseudoscalar and scalar mesons within QCD sum rules method are briefly reviewed. The predictions are based on the $1/N_c$-supported model spectra, which…
We consider logarithmic contributions to the free energy, instanton effective action and Laplace sum rules in QCD that are a consequence of radiative corrections. Upon summing these contributions by using the renormalization group, all…
The relation between the pole quark mass and the $\overline{MS}$-renormalized mass is governed by an infrared renormalon singularity, which leads to an ambiguity of order $\Lambda_{QCD}$ in the definition of the pole mass. We use the…
In the recent preprints the authors claim that conclusions on the violation of the Luttinger sum rule (LSR) as put forward in published papers by the present authors are false or at least not conclusive enough. It concerns the validity of…
The status of theoretical studies of the $H$ dibaryon is reviewed. Some recent developments including the effect of the instanton induced interaction and the QCD sum rule results are discussed in detail.
We evaluate lower bounds on the sum of the up and down quark masses. The bounds follow from the constraints provided by the dispersion relation obeyed by the two--point function of the scalar current density when combined with properties of…
This Comment identifies errors in the formalism/implementation reported in Ref. 1 and discusses some aspects of that work that were not fully specified in the original publication. This Comment also provides reference numerical results for…
