An approach to understanding the light scalar meson phenomenology is briefly reviewed.
This paper is a written version of a talk on rare (FCNC) D meson decays as presented at the Electroweak Moriond 2002. The presentation proceeds in two parts. We first consider Standard Model predictions, taking into account both…
Meson production cross sections in ultra-peripheral relativistic heavy ion collisions at LHC are revisited. The relevance of meson models and of exotic QCD states is discussed. This study includes states that have not been considered before…
These are the mini-proceedings of the workshop ``Spontaneously Broken Chiral Symmetry and Hard QCD Phenomena" held at the Physikzentrum Bad Honnef from July 15 to 19, 2002. Every author presents a summary of his talk. The transparencies of…
A brief review of large-N_c QCD and the 1/N_c expansion is given. Important results for large-N_c mesons and baryons are highlighted.

This article on light cone field theory reviews the basic concepts of the Poincare group in light cone quantum mechanics and light cone field theory. It discusses recent progress in light cone representations of the Bethe-Salpeter equation,…
The properties of baryons can be computed in a systematic expansion in $1/N_c$, where $N_c$ is the number of colors. Recent results on the axial couplings and masses of baryons (for the case of three flavors) are presented. The results give…
This talk reviews recent progress in formulating the dynamics of Kaon Physics, within the framework of the 1/Nc-expansion in QCD.
The large Nc limit provides a good phenomenology of meson spectra and interactions. I discuss some problems with applying the large Nc approximation to the description of baryons, and point out a number of apparent paradoxes and…
These lectures are designed to introduce the methods and results of large N_c QCD in a presentation intended for nuclear and particle physicists alike. Beginning with definitions and motivations of the approach, we demonstrate that all…

Light-cone coordinates and supersymmetric discrete light-cone quantization are used to analyze the thermodynamics of two-dimensional supersymmetric quantum chromodynamics with a Chern-Simons term in the large-N_c approximation. This…
Based on the mathematically well defined Pad\'e Theory, a theoretically safe new procedure for the extraction of the pole mass and width of resonances is proposed. In particular, thanks to the Montessus de Ballore's theorem we are able to…
Mesons in large-N QCD are analysed in light-front coordinates with a transverse lattice at strong coupling. In this limit, their properties can be expressed as simple renormalisations of the 't Hooft model results. The integral eigenvalue…
This is a summary of theoretical plenary contributions to the biennial hadron physics conference Meson2006, which was the ninth in this series. The topics covered in the meeting include low energy pion-pion and pion-nucleon interactions,…
We initiate the studies on the structural physics of the tower of stable large-$N_c$ mesons through a first computation of the collinear quark-structure of a large-$N_c$ pion using lattice Monte-Carlo methods. We adapt the large-$N_c$…
