We try to find the grounds for the standard nucleon QCD sum rules, based on more detailed description of QCD vacuum. We calculate the polarization operator of the nucleon current in the instanton medium. The medium (QCD vacuum) is assumed…
Factorial, cumulant and $H_q$-moments in dependence on their rank q for the instanton-induced deep inelastic scattering (DIS) in the frameworks of QCD are calculated and analysed. The obtained correlation moments behaviour has specific…
In quantum chromodynamics (QCD), the role which topologically non-trivial configurations play in splitting the singlet pseudo-Goldstone meson, the $\eta^\prime$, from the octet is familiar. In addition, such configurations contribute to…
We briefly report on the contribution of QCD-instantons to the phenomenon of saturation in deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) at small Bjorken-x. The explicitly known instanton gauge field serves as a concrete realization of an underlying…
We show that instanton calculations in QCD become theoretically well defined in the gluon saturation environment which suppresses large size instantons. The effective cutoff scale is determined by the inverse of the saturation scale. We…
The precise quark mass dependence of the one-loop effective action in an instanton background has recently been computed [arXiv:hep-th/0410190]. The result interpolates smoothly between the previously known extreme small and large mass…
Overlapping instantons have an action density profile that significantly deviates from the simple addition of the density profiles of single instantons. This turns out to have important consequences for identifying the proper instanton…
We evaluate a number of new instanton-induced phenomena in QCD, starting with static dipole-dipole potentials, and proceeding to quark-quark and dipole-dipole scattering at high energy. We use a non-perturbative formulation of the…
The Single-instanton approximation (SIA) is often used to evaluate analytically instanton contribution to euclidean correlation functions in QCD, at small distances. We discuss how this approximation can be consistently derived from the…

We discuss the general issues and ambiguities involved in matching the exact results for the low energy effective action of scale invariant N=2 supersymmetric QCD to those obtained by instanton methods. We resolve the reported disagreements…
We exhibit the method for obtaining non perturbative quark and gluonic vacuum condensates from a model truncation of QCD. The truncation allows for a phenomenological description of the quark-quark interaction in a framework which maintains…
Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) exhibits complementary descriptions of hadrons: a rest-frame picture based on confinement, chiral symmetry breaking and interquark forces, and a high-energy light-front picture expressed through parton…
A standard approach to investigate the non-perturbative QCD dynamics is through vacuum models which emphasize the role played by specific gauge field fluctuations, such as instantons, monopoles or vortexes. The effective Hamiltonian…
