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…
QCD perturbation theory using quark and gluon propagators that have an extra term at zero four-momentum is equivalent to standard PQCD in the presence of massless quark and gluon pairs in the perturbative vacuum. We verify at low orders in…
We systematically compute the effective short-range potentials arising from second order QCD-diagrams related to bound states of quarks, antiquarks, and gluons. Our formalism relies on the assumption that the exchanged gluons are massless,…
The impact of filling up the Fermi sphere with the quarks, which dynamically generated their masses on the instanton liquid at finite temperature and baryonic/quark number density, is investigated. It is demonstrated, in particular, that…
We identify the independent dimension 6 twist 4 gluon operators and calculate their renormalization in the pure gauge theory. By constructing the renormalization group invariant combinations, we find the scale invariant condensates that can…
We suggest a constrained instanton (CI) solution in the physical QCD vacuum which is described by large-scale vacuum field fluctuations. This solution decays exponentially at large distances. It is stable only if the interaction of the…
Arguments in favor of a large magnitude ( at least two- three times bigger than its factorized value) of the mixed vacuum condensate $ \la \bar{q}G_{\mu\nu}^a G_{\mu\nu}^a q \ra$ are given. The analysis is based on the strict inequalities…
The colored objects -- quarks and gluons -- being confined in a small volume $V\sim R_0^3,$ $R_0\sim 0.5$fm inside the QCD bound state get there not small masses $m_{q\bar q}\sim 1$GeV, $m_g\sim 0.5$GeV. This drastically simplifies the QCD…
We reconsider the extraction of the gluon condensates <alpha_s G^2>, <g^3f_{abc} G^3> and the MS running quark masses m_{c,b} from different M_n(Q^2) Moments and their Ratios by including PT corrections to order alpha_s^3, NPT terms up to…
We study instanton effects in QCD at very high baryon density. In this regime instantons are suppressed by a large power of $(\Lambda_{QCD}/\mu)$, where $\Lambda_{QCD}$ is the QCD scale parameter and $\mu$ is the baryon chemical potential.…
The non-local vacuum condensates of QCD describe the distributions of quarks and gluons in the non-perturbative QCD vacuum. Physically, this means that vacuum quarks and gluons have nonzero mean-squared momentum, called virtuality. In this…
We calculate the contribution of the instanton -- anti-instanton ($I\bar I$) pairs to the vacuum energy of QCD-like theories with $N_f$ light fermions using the saddle point method. We find a qualitative change of the behavior: for $N_f \ge…
The development of a Modified Perturbation Theory for QCD, introduced in previous works, is continued. The gluon propagator is modified as consequence of a soft gluon pairs condensate in the vacuum. The modified Feynman rules for $\alpha=1$…
We try to find the grounds for the standard nucleon QCD sum rules, based on more detailed description of QCD vacuum. We calculate the polarization operator of the nucleon current in the instanton medium. The medium (QCD vacuum) is assumed…
We use a novel method to calculate analytically the QCD instanton prefactor due to a quark field carrying a small mass parameter $m$. In the SU(2) instanton background of size $\rho$, the spinor effective action $\Gamma^F$ (in the minimal…
The QCD + QED axial anomaly low-energy theorems are applied to estimate the accuracy of an instanton vacuum - based chiral quark model. The low-energy theorems give an exact relation between the matrix elements of the gluon and photon parts…
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…
We calculate the nucleon matrix element of Weinberg's dimension-6 CP-odd gluon operator $f^{abc} (\tilde F_{\mu\nu})^a (F^{\mu\rho})^b (F^{\nu}_{\;\;\rho})^c$ in the instanton vacuum. In leading order of the instanton packing fraction, the…
The values of four-quark operators averaged over pions are expressed through those averaged over vacuum. The specific values are obtained in the framework of the factorization assumption. For the condensates of the light quarks of the same…
