Here, we report briefly two topics: 1) The latest version of ``Analytic Perturbation Theory" (APT) devised recently for the QCD observables both in the Euclidean and Minkowskian regions. 2) Results of the APT--based calculation for some…
Deep inelastic scattering data on the F_2 structure function provided by the BCDMS, SLAC and NMC collaborations are analyzed in the non-singlet approximation with the analytic and "frozen" modifications of the strong coupling constant…
I discuss aspects of the QCD sum rule method which attracted theorists' attention in earnest at a relatively late stage and are not yet fully solved. At first I briefly review such general topics as the structure of the operator product…
We report on the extraction of the Q2-dependence of the Bjorken sum between 0.16 < Q2 < 1.1 GeV2. A twist analysis performed on these data shows that the higher twist corrections are small due to a cancellation between the twist-4 and 6…
We present an extension of the QCD sum rule method in the external fields so as to determine the induced pseudoscalar coupling constant g_P, which tests the validity of the partially conserved axial current (PCAC) hypothesis. This is…
The alternative approach to QCD analysis of the structure function F2gamma is presented. It differs from the conventional one by the presence of the terms, which in conventional approach appear in higher orders. The numerical results show…
A general, and very basic introduction to QCD sum rules is presented, with emphasis on recent issues to be described at length in other papers in this volume of Modern Physics Letters A. Collectively, these papers constitute the proceedings…
The low energy behavior of a recently proposed model for the massive analytic running coupling of QCD is studied. This running coupling has no unphysical singularities, and in the absence of masses displays infrared enhancement. The…
Elements of the alternative approach to hard collisions of photons, proposed recently by the author, are reviewed, with particular attention to QCD analysis of $F^{\gamma}_2$. This approach is based on clear separation of genuine QCD…
We present an updated version of a QCD coupling which fulfills various physically motivated conditions: at high momenta it practically coincides with the perturbative QCD (pQCD) coupling; at intermediate momenta it reproduces correctly the…
Local convergence analysis of the augmented Lagrangian method (ALM) is established for a large class of composite optimization problems with nonunique Lagrange multipliers under a second-order sufficient condition. We present a new…
Part I is devoted to the extraction of the QCD coupling from a bound state approach at low energy scales, where unphysical singularities make the RG-improved pQCD useless. Theoretical results on the meson spectrum based on a Bethe-Salpeter…
A simple parametrization of the QCD running coupling at low scales is introduced and used to illustrate various schemes for the estimation of non-perturbative power corrections. The `infrared matching' scheme proposed earlier gives…
New QCD sum rules for the nucleon axial-vector current coupling constants are derived. One set is derived from a generalized correlator of spin-1/2 interpolating fields, and the other with a mixed correlator of spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 fields.…
Results for the first test of the ``crude'' QCD continuum model, commonly used in QCD Sum Rule analyses, are presented for baryon correlation functions. The QCD continuum model is found to effectively account for excited state contributions…
We consider a phenomenologycal parametrization of the QCD running coupling which arises from the dispersion relation respecting the holomorphic properties of the physical QCD observables in the complex momentum plane. The parameters are…
We present an overview of a novel approach to the QCD Light-Cone Sum Rule method, employing $B$-meson Light-Cone Distribution Amplitudes. This method circumvents the semi-global quark-hadron duality (QHD) approximation, which can introduce…
An introduction to the method of QCD sum rules is given for those who want to learn how to use this method. Furthermore, we discuss various applications of sum rules, from the determination of quark masses to the calculation of hadronic…
We discuss the new model expression $\bar{\alpha}_{an}(Q^2)$ recently obtained for the QCD running coupling with a regular ghost-free behavior in the "low $Q^2$" region. Being deduced from the standard "asymptotic-freedom" expression by…
We summarize the current status of our understanding of the structure of the perturbative QCD expressions for the QCD generalization of the Crewther relation.
