The generalized Crewther relation relates the cross section ratio $R=\sigma(e^+e^- \to {\rm hadrons})/\sigma(e^+e^- \to {\mu}^+ {\mu}^-)$ in $e^+e^-$ annihilation with the Bjorken sum rule or the Gross-Llewellyn Smith sum rule in deep…
We review what we consider to be the minimal model of quantized conductance in a finite interacting quantum wire. Our approach utilizes the simplicity of the equation of motion description to both deal with general spatially dependent…
Describing a particle in an external electromagnetic field is a basic task of quantum mechanics. The standard scheme for this is known as "minimal coupling", and consists of replacing the momentum operators in the Hamiltonian by modified…
{}From an accurate determination of the inter-quark potential, one can study the running coupling constant for a range of $R$-values and hence estimate the scale $\Lambda_{\msbar} $. Detailed results are presented for $SU(3)$ pure gauge…
We determine the critical coupling constant above which dynamical chiral symmetry breaking occurs in a class of QCD motivated models where the gluon propagator has an enhanced infrared behavior. Using methods of bifurcation theory we find…
The calculation of perturbative corrections to the spectral moments observable in hadronic $\tau$ decays is reconsidered. The exact order-$\alpha_s^3$ results and the resummation procedure of Le~Diberder and Pich are compared with a partial…
We uncover a novel solution of the 't Hooft anomaly matching conditions for QCD. Interestingly in the perturbative regime the new gauge theory, if interpreted as a possible QCD dual, predicts the critical number of flavors above which QCD…
Trajectories of on-off events are the output of many single molecule experiments. Usually, one describes the underlying mechanism that generates the trajectory using a kinetic scheme, and by analyzing the trajectory aims at deducing this…
Collider experiments often exploit information about the quantum numbers of final state hadrons to maximize their sensitivity, with applications ranging from the use of tracking information (electric charge) for precision jet substructure…
We analyze subtracted dispersion relations for meson correlators at finite baryon density and temperature. Such relations are needed for QCD sum rules. We point out the importance of scattering terms, as well as finite, well-defined…
The Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) coupling $\alpha_s$ is a central parameter in the Standard Model of particle physics. However, it depends on theoretical conventions related to renormalisation and hence is not an observable quantity. In…
Quantum Chromodynamics with a relatively large number of fundamentally charged quark flavours in the chiral limit is considered. A self-consistent solution of the quark, gluon and ghost propagator Dyson-Schwinger equations in Landau gauge…

The running coupling and the Kugo-Ojima parameter of unquenched lattice Landau gauge are simulated and compared with the continuum theory. Presence of infrared fixed point of $\alpha_0\sim 2-2.5$ irrespective of the fermion actions (Wilson…
We compute the triple gluon, quark-gluon and ghost-gluon vertices of QCD at the symmetric subtraction point at two loops in the MSbar scheme. In addition we renormalize each of the three vertices in their respective momentum subtraction…
We discuss the determination of the strong coupling $\alpha_\mathrm{\overline{MS}}^{}(m_\mathrm{Z})$ or equivalently the QCD $\Lambda$-parameter. Its determination requires the use of perturbation theory in $\alpha_s(\mu)$ in some scheme,…
The potential between infinitely heavy quarks in a color singlet state is of fundamental importance in QCD. While the confining long distance part is inherently non-perturbative, the short-distance (Coulomb-like) regime is accessible…
The study of gluon radiation in QCD, in the limit of small ("soft") momentum, remains an active research area, with a variety of phenomenological and theoretical applications. Soft gluon emission leads to large logarithms in perturbation…
It has been shown previously that in a relativistic constituent-quark model, predictions for the electromagnetic form factor of the pi meson match not only experimental data but also, in the limit of large momentum transfers, the…
The running coupling of the Wilson fermon(JLQCD/CP-PACS) and that of Kogut-Susskind(KS) fermion(MILC) are measured in the lattice Landau gauge QCD in $\widetilde{MOM}$ scheme. The quark propagator of the KS fermion is also measured and we…
