I review the current status of nonleptonic kaon decays, placing special emphasis on the recent theoretical progress. In particular, I concentrate on 3 points: (i) the improved determination of \epsilon_K, including both perturbative and…
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…

The QCD coupling appears in the perturbative expansion of the current-current two-point (vacuum polarization) function. Any lattice calculation of vacuum polarization is plagued by several competing non-perturbative effects at small momenta…

Scattering of two mesons is considered in the framework of two-dimensional QCD in the large-$N_c^{}$ limit with four different quark flavors. The scattering takes place through two coupled channels, corresponding to direct and…
