The instanton vacuum picture is used to study hadronic matrix elements of the twist-3 (dimension-4, spin-1) QCD operators measuring the quark spin density and spin-orbit correlations. The QCD operators are converted to effective operators…

We show that $QCD_2$ with adjoint fermions involves instantons due to nontrivial $\pi_1[SU(N)/Z_N]~=~Z_N$. At high temperatures, quasiclassical approximation works and the action and the form of effective (with account of quantum…

This work is devoted to the study of the non-perturbative contributions in non-leptonic hyperon decays. We show that the instanton-induced 't Hooft interaction can naturally explain the Delta I=1/2 rule, by generating quark-diquark…

In this thesis we study two processes in which instantons may play an important role: the decays of charmonium states $\eta_c$, $\chi_c$ and glueball and the OZI violation in channels relevant to the proton spin decomposition puzzle. We…

Roles of instantons in strangeness hadron physics are discussed. After introducing general features of instantons, hadron spectroscopy under the influence of instanton-quark effective interactions is discussed. Emphases are on the H…

We discuss few, apparently different, but actually tightly related problems: a)Strangeness in the nucleon; b) B --> eta' decays; c)Intrinsic charm in the proton spin problem. We argue that all these problems have a common origin and related…

Two-step mechanisms in the $N\bar{N}$ annihilation and their role in the OZI rule violating reactions are discussed. In particular the two meson rescattering mechanism for $\pi\phi$ channel including all off-shell effects is typically two…

The main objective of this work is to explore the evolution in the structure of the quark-antiquark bound states in going down in the chirally restored phase from the so-called "zero binding points" T_zb to the QCD critical temperature T_c…

We study the electro-magnetic form factors of the nucleon, from small to large momentum transfer, in the context of the Instanton Liquid Model (ILM). As a first step, we analyze the role of single-instanton effects, and show that they…
