New relations between Bjorken polarized, Gross-Llewellyn Smith and Bjorken unpolarized sum rules are proposed. They are based on the ``universality'' of the perturbative and non-perturbative $\rm{1/Q^2}$ contributions to these sum rules.…
We present recent results from Jefferson Lab on sum rules related to the spin structure of the nucleon. We then discuss how the Bjorken sum rule, with its connection to the Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn sum, allows us to conveniently define an…
An improved calculation of the strong coupling constants of B$_1$B$_{s0}$K and B$_1$B$_{s1}$K vertices is presented in the framework of the three-point QCD sum rules. The coupling constants are calculated, when both the B$_{s0}$(B$_{s1}$)…

Model independent sum rules for heavy baryon masses are tested for baryons containing charmed or bottom quarks. The sum rules depend only on the assumption that baryon mass differences are determined by spin-dependent two-body energies of…
QCD sum rules are used to calculate the couplings of heavy-light quark pseudoscalar and vector mesons ($D, D^*$ and $B, B^*$) with soft pions, both for finite and infinitely heavy quark mass. The couplings are also computed in the framework…
The determination of twist-4 corrections to the structure functions of polarized $e(\mu)N$ scattering by QCD sum rules is reviewed and critically analyzed. It is found that in the case of the Bjorken sum rule the twist-4 correction is small…
