We have studied the applications of the anomaly sum rule to the transition form factors of light pseudoscalar mesons: $\pi^0$, $\eta$ and $\eta'$. This nonperturbative QCD approach can be used even if the QCD factorization is broken. The…
The pion-nucleon coupling constant $g_{\pi N}$ is studied on the basis of the QCD sum rules. Both the Borel sum rules and the finite energy sum rules for $g_{\pi N}$ are used to examine the effects of higher dimensional operators (up to…
A factorization hypothesis is tested by examining a form factor of the $\omega\pi$ production in hadronic $B^0 \to D^{\ast \pm}\omega\pi^\mp$ decays. The form factor is compared to that from available $\tau$-lepton as well as $e^+e^-$ data…
We apply the light-cone QCD sum rules with chiral currents to compute transition form factors of the semileptonic decay of the charmed and bottom scalar mesons $D/B$ to $a_{0}(980)l^{+}\nu_{l}$ $(l=e$, $\mu)$, where the scalar meson…
