We emphasize the role of the x dependence of the quark condensate <|\bar q(0)q(x)|> originated by the zero fermion modes in the instanton vacuum. The effect is not negligible since the inverse size of the instanton 1/\rho~600MeV is…
Nuclear effects in light nuclei due to the presence of spin-one isosinglet 6-quark clusters are investigated. The quark distributions of 6-quark clusters are obtained by using a perturbative QCD (pQCD) based framework, which allows us to…

We show that the instanton-induced inelastic processes, leading to multi-gluon production in in high-energy parton-parton scattering, are considerably enhanced over the quasi-elastic ones, by a factor of 100. The basic instanton-induced…
We investigate the quark condensate of the QCD vacuum within the instanton vacuum model. We calculate the meson-loop contributions to the dynamical quark mass and quark condensate to ${\cal O}(1/N_c)$-, ${\cal O}(m/N_c)$-, and ${\cal…
We study the electro-magnetic form factors of the nucleon, from small to large momentum transfer, in the context of the Instanton Liquid Model (ILM). As a first step, we analyze the role of single-instanton effects, and show that they…
We study the twist-4 contribution to the unpolarized nucleon structure functions, F_L and F_2, in an approach where the vacuum structure of QCD is described by a dilute medium of instantons ($\bar\rho / \bar R \ll 1$). The dominant power…
We introduce the spin-operator representation for the gluon as well as quark distribution functions as nucleon matrix element of the gauge-invariant bilocal light-cone operators in QCD. To identify the relevant spin operators for quarks and…
These are the (twice) extended notes of a set of lectures given at the ``12th Workshop on Hadronic Interactions'' at the IF/UERJ, Rio de Janeiro (31. 5. - 2. 6. 2000). The lectures aim at introducing essential concepts of instanton physics,…
The contribution of instanton-induced effective inter-quark interactions to the baryon mass splittings was considered in the bag model. It is found that results are different from those obtained in the constituent quark model where the…
The isospin asymmetry of the sea quark distribution as well as the unexpectedly small quark spin fraction of the nucleon are two outstanding discoveries recently made in the physics of deep-inelastic structure functions. We evaluate here…
