The quark (gluon)-hadron duality constitutes a basis for the theoretical treatment of a wide range of inclusive processes -- from hadronic \tau decays and R_{e^+e^-}, to semileptonic and nonleptonic decay rates of heavy flavor hadrons. A…
We formulate a dressed perturbative expansion of QCD, where the standard diagrams are evaluated in the presence of a constant external gluon field whose magnitude is gaussian distributed. The approach is Poincar{\'e} and gauge invariant,…
The operator product expansion in four-dimensional superconformal field theory is discussed. The OPE takes a particularly simple form for chiral operators, in $N=1$ and $N=2$, and for analytic operators, in $N=2$ and $N=4$. It is argued…
A method for calculating coefficient functions of the operator product expansion, which was previously derived for the non-singlet case, is generalized for the singlet coefficient functions. The resulting formula defines coefficient…

We discuss the Operator Product Expansion (OPE) and quark-hadron duality for two-point Green functions of tetraquark currents. We emphasize that the factorizable part of the OPE series for such Green functions, including nonperturbative…
Since the definition of the gluon to hadrons fragmentation amplitude $<H,X|g>$ involves gluon field $Q^{\mu a}(x)$ corresponding to single gluon incoming state $|g>$, the present definition of the gluon fragmentation function at high energy…
We present a formulation of the operator product expansion that is infrared finite to all orders in the attendant massless non-Abelian gauge theory coupling constant, which we will often-times associate with the QCD theory, the theory that…
We obtain the operator product expansion of the self-energy in the O(N) non-linear $\sigma$-model to all orders in the coupling and the large momentum, and to next-to-leading order in 1/N. In the light of this result we discuss recent…
We perform an exploratory study of the operator product expansion of the quark propagator on the lattice at short distance in coordinate space. This permits a simple determination of the quark condensate, <qq>^MS(2 GeV)=(-265\pm 5\pm 22…
There have been some long-standing puzzles related to the Coulomb solutions of the Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations, namely how to understand the physics underlying the weakly divergent near-the-origin behavior of the $S$-wave wave…
The operator-product expansion(OPE) could be employed to obtain the lowest-order, nonlocal quark scalar condensate component of gluon vacuum polarization. In particular, nonlocal quark scalar condensate can be calculated by solving…

A QCD based effective action is constructed to describe the dynamics of confinement and symmetry breaking in the process of parton-hadron conversion. The deconfined quark and gluon degrees of freedom of the perturbative QCD vacuum are…
We analytically calculate higher order corrections to coefficient functions of the operator product expansion (OPE) for the Euclidean correlator of two energy-momentum tensors in massless QCD. These are the three-loop contribution to the…
The lattice data on the instanton size distribution suggest an additional O($\rho^2)$ action. The small-$\rho$ effect O($\rho^4)$ predicted by the Operator Product Expansion (OPE) is not observed. Similar deviations are also found for…
Nonperturbative contribution to the one-gluon exchange produces a universal linear term in the static potential at small distances $\Delta V=\frac{6N_c \alpha_s \sigma r}{2\pi}$. Its role in the resolution of long--standing discrepancies in…
We discuss conserved currents and operator product expansions (OPE's) in the context of a $O(N)$ invariant conformal field theory. Using OPE's we find explicit expressions for the first few terms in suitable short-distance limits for…
The role of the operator-product expansion in QCD calculations is discussed. Approximating the two-point correlation function by several terms and assuming an upper bound on the truncation error along the euclidean ray, we consider two…
