A QCD analysis of the world data on polarized deep inelastic scattering is presented in leading and next-to-leading order. New parameterizations are derived for the quark and gluon distributions for the kinematic range $x \epsilon…
We present a combined next-to-leading order QCD analysis to data on both inclusive and semi-inclusive polarized deep inelastic scattering asymmetries. Performing NLO QCD global fits with different sets of observables, we evaluate the impact…
We discuss the method of conformal mappings applied to perturbative QCD. The approach is based on the Borel-Laplace integral regulated with the principal value prescription and the expansion of the Borel transform in powers of the variable…

We compute the leading clustering (abelian non-global) logarithms, which arise in the distribution of non-global QCD observables when final-state partons are clustered using the $k_t$ jet algorithm, up to six loops in perturbation theory.…

The theory of fractional calculus in the complex plane was not built with a specific application in mind. The main obstacle to application was the difficulty with obtaining analytic continuations of fractional derivatives and integrals. It…
We briefly summarize some recent theoretical developments in perturbative QCD, emphasizing new ideas which have led to widening the domain of applicability of perturbation theory. In particular, it is now possible to calculate efficiently…
We describe the development of Analytic Perturbation Theory (APT) in QCD, called Fractional APT (FAPT), which has been suggested to apply the renormalization group evolution and QCD factorization technique in the framework of APT.
The fractional polylogarithms, depending on a complex parameter $\a$, are defined by a series which is analytic inside the unit disk. After an elementary conversion of the series into an integral presentation, we show that the fractional…
Perturbative cross-sections in QCD are beset by logarithms of kinematic invariants, whose arguments vanish when heavy particles are produced near threshold. Contributions of this type often need to be summed to all orders in the coupling,…
Considering the results of recent distinguished analytical calculations of the 5-loop single-fermion loop corrections to the QED $\beta$-function we emphasize that to our point of view it is important to perform their independent…
Making use of inverse Mellin transform techniques for analytical continuation, an elegant proof and an extension of the zeta function regularization theorem is obtained. No series commutations are involved in the procedure; nevertheless the…
We address the issue of large-order expansions in strong-field QED. Our approach is based on the one-loop effective action encoded in the associated photon polarisation tensor. We concentrate on the simple case of crossed fields aiming at…
We use the BLM scale-fixing prescription to derive a renormalization-scheme invariant relation between the coefficient function for the Bjorken sum rule for polarized deep inelastic scattering and the $R$-ratio for the $e^+e^-$ annihilation…
The analytical $\mathcal{O}(a^4_s)$ perturbative QCD expression for the flavour non-singlet contribution to the Bjorken polarized sum rule in the rather applicable at present gauge--dependent $\rm{miniMOM}$ scheme is obtained. For the…

The paper is devoted to application of recently devised ghost-free Analytic Perturbation Theory (APT) for analysis of some QCD observables. We start with the discussion of the main problem of the perturbative QCD -- ghost singularities and…
We apply a recently constructed model of analytic QCD in the Operator Product Expansion (OPE) analysis of the tau lepton decay data in the V+A channel. The model has the running coupling A(Q^2) with no unphysical singularities, i.e., it is…
In the limit of an infinite number of colors, an analytic expression for the quark condensate in $QCD_{1+1}$ is derived as a function of the quark mass and the gauge coupling constant. For zero quark mass, a nonvanishing quark condensate is…
