Quark-hadron duality addresses some of the most fundamental issues in strong interaction physics, in particular the nature of the transition from the perturbative to non-perturbative regions of QCD. I summarize recent developments in…
We discuss (i) the evaluation of the expectation values of four-quark operators assuming that the heavy quark expansion for $b$ sector converges at the third order in $1/m_Q$, and (ii) the estimation of the duality breaking short distance…
Within a chiral quark sigma model in which quarks interact via the exchange of sigma and pi-mesons, hadron properties are investigated. This model of the nucleon and delta is based on the idea that strong QCD forces on very short distances…

I review the notion of the quark-hadron duality from the modern perspective. Both, the theoretical foundation and practical applications are discussed. The proper theoretical framework in which the problem can be formulated and treated is…
It has recently been suggested that the parity doublet structure seen in the spectrum of highly excited baryons may be due to effective chiral symmetry restoration for these states. We review the recent developments in this field. We…

We propose a symmetry breaking scheme for QCD with three massless quarks at high baryon density wherein the color and flavor SU(3)_color times SU(3)_L times SU(3)_R symmetries are broken down to the diagonal subgroup SU(3)_{color+L+R} by…
High energy lepton scattering has been the primary tool for mapping out the quark distributions of nucleons and nuclei. Data on the proton and deuteron have shown that there is a fundamental connection between the low and high energy…
Roles of quark-pair correlations in the baryon structure and the hyperon non-leptonic weak decay are studied within the non-relativistic constituent quark model. We construct the SU(3) ground state baryons by solving the three body problem…
Using the spectral functions measured in $\tau$ decays, we investigate the actual numerical impact of duality violations on the extraction of the strong coupling. These effects are tiny in the standard $\alpha_s(m_\tau^2)$ determinations…
It has recently been suggested that the parity doublet structure seen in the spectrum of highly excited baryons may be due to effective chiral restoration for these states. We argue how the idea of chiral symmetry restoration high in the…
The structure function of a heavy quark in a heavy hadron in electroproduction is calculated from QCD. Its deviation from the parton model prediction (a delta function) is shown to be governed by a shape function, similar to the one…
The Chiral Quark-Soliton Model of nucleons is based on two ideas: 1) the major role of spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking in hadron physics and 2) the relevance of the large number of colours limit for the real world. In these lectures I…
Recent data on polarized proton knockout reactions off He-4 nuclei suggest a small but nonzero modification of proton electromagnetic form factors in medium. Using model independent relations derived on the basis of quark-hadron duality, we…
A dynamically broken hadron supersymmetry appears to exist as a consequence of QCD. The reasons for the supersymmetry appear most transparently in the framework of the constituent quark model with a diquark approximation to two quarks.…
