The duality between the partonic and hadronic descriptions of electron--nucleon scattering is a remarkable feature of nuclear interactions. When averaged over appropriate energy intervals the cross section at low energy which is dominated…
We present an analysis of the dynamics of two-flavour QCD in the vacuum. Special attention is payed to the transition from the high energy quark-gluon regime to the low energy regime governed by hadron dynamics. This is done within a…
The phase diagram of two color QCD under influence of baryon density ($\mu_B$), isospin ($\mu_I$), chiral ($\mu_5$ and $\nu_5$) imbalances is investigated within the framework NJL model approach. This letter establishes the existence of…
We discuss the various aspects of two-dimensional $QCD_{2}(N\rightarrow\infty)$ (the 't Hooft model\cite{Hooft}). Our main interest (motivated by the corresponding analysis in the four dimensional QCD) is the vacuum structure of the theory.…
We find that in "two-photon"-like processes in the scalar $\varphi^3_E$ model and also in hadron-pair production arising from the collisions of a real (transversely polarized) and a highly virtual, longitudinally polarized, photon in QCD,…
The nature and location of the QCD phase transition close to the chiral limit restricts the phase structure of QCD with physical pion masses at non-vanishing density. At small pion masses, explicit $U(1)_{\rm A}$-breaking, as induced by a…
Strong hadronic decays are discussed in the 't Hooft model for the two-dimensional QCD in the limit of infinite number of colours. Adler selfconsistency condition is derived for decays with pions in the final state and the corresponding…
We consider the 3d dual of 1+1 dimensional large-N_c QCD with quarks in the fundamental representation, also known as the 't Hooft model. 't Hooft solved this model by deriving a Schroedinger equation for the wavefunction of a parton inside…
I discuss the issue of quark-hadron duality in the system of heavy-light quark mesons. As an example, I consider a correlator of two currents comprising heavy quark operators, and I compare the OPE expression with the result obtained by a…
We study an extended QCD model in (1+1) dimensions obtained from QCD in 4D by compactifying two spatial dimensions and projecting onto the zero-mode subspace. We work out this model in the large $N_c$ limit and using light cone gauge but…
Recent studies of the Q^2 dependence of ep scattering in the large x region and in the Q^2 range: 1 < Q^2 <leq 30 Gev^2, confirm the validity of the phenomenon of quark-hadron duality - the similarity of the deep inelastic (parton) and…
We construct the magnetic dual of QCD with one adjoint Weyl fermion. The dual is a consistent solution of the 't Hooft anomaly matching conditions, allows for flavor decoupling and remarkably constitutes the first nonsupersymmetric dual…
QCD at finite temperature below the phase transition should be determined in terms of colour singlet states such as hadrons and strings. We show how quark-hadron duality allows extracting sensible information concerning heavy quark and…
We show how quark-hadron duality can emerge for valence spin averaged structure functions, and for the non-forward distributions of Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering. Novel factorisations of the non-forward amplitudes are proposed. Some…
We study a 2N-flavor effective theory of N-flavor QCD. With the axial anomaly accounted for in the effective theory by a 't Hooft interaction, only QCD conserved currents survive. However, there is a residual discrete symmetry with…
It is demonstrated in several exclusive processes involving the pion that a local quark-hadron duality prescription is equivalent to using an effective $ \bar q q $ (two-body) light-cone wave function $\Psi^{(LD)}(x,k_{\perp})$ for the…
QCD string picture of highly excited hadrons very naturally explains parity doubling once the chiral symmetry is restored high in the spectrum. In particular, the spin-orbit and tensor interactions of quarks at the ends of the string,…
We study in detail deep inelastic scattering in the 't Hooft model. We are able to analytically check current conservation and to obtain analytic expressions for the matrix elements with relative precision O(1/Q^2) for 1-x >> \beta^2/Q^2.…
The large mass limit of QCD uncovers symmetries that are not present in the QCD lagrangian. These symmetries have been applied to physical (finite mass) systems, such as B and D mesons. We explore the validity of this approximation in the…
We carry out a comprehensive study of the quark-to-meson fragmentation function in the 't Hooft model, i.e., the two-dimensional Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) in $N_c\to \infty$ limit, following the operator definition pioneered by Collins…
