We study the quark-gluon vertex in the limit of vanishing gluon momentum using lattice QCD with 2 flavors of O(a) improved Wilson fermions, for several lattice spacings and quark masses. We find that all three form factors in this…
Assuming the gluon field is well approximated by instanton configurations we derive a light quarks determinant and calculate its contribution to the specific heavy quarks correlators -- namely, the heavy quark propagator and heavy…
The non-perturbative contribution to the Pauli form factor of the quark, $F_2(Q^2)$, is calculated within an instanton model for the QCD vacuum. It is shown that the instantons give a large negative contribution to the form factor.
A straightforward derivation of the effective quark Lagrangian is presented for the topologically neutral chiral broken phase of the dilute instanton gas. The resulting quark Lagrangian is a nonlocal NJL-type and contains 4q, 6q,...…

We study, by numerical simulations on a lattice, the behaviour of the gauge-invariant quark-antiquark nonlocal condensates in the QCD vacuum with dynamical fermions. A determination is also done in the quenched approximation and the results…
We argue that the $<A_{\rm OPE}^2>$ condensate found in the Landau gauge on lattices, when an Operator Product Expansion of Green functions is performed, might be explained by instantons. We use cooling to estimate the instanton…
We develop the theory of fermion induced phononlike excitations of the instanton liquid. It suggests a mechanism of current quark mass generation which is easily understandable by calculating the corresponding functional integral in the…
We exhibit the method for obtaining non perturbative quark and gluonic vacuum condensates from a model truncation of QCD. The truncation allows for a phenomenological description of the quark-quark interaction in a framework which maintains…

The lattice regularization of QCD provides us with the most systematic way of computing non-perturbative properties of hadrons directly from the first principles of QCD. The recent rapid development of parallel computers has enabled us to…
We study the interplay between the <A^2> condensate and instantons in non-Abelian gauge theory. Therefore we use the formalism of Local Composite Operators, with which the vacuum expectation value of this condensate can be analytically…
In this thesis, we perform the lattice QCD analysis via the energy-momentum component of gluons. By introducing the momentum cutoff to the link variable, we investigate which energy-momentum components of gluons induce each QCD phenomenon.…
Theoretical and numerical studies of the Wilson flow in lattice QCD suggest that the gauge field obtained at flow time t>0 is a smooth renormalized field. The expectation values of local gauge-invariant expressions in this field are thus…
