The fact that the spins of the quarks in the proton, as measured in deep inelastic lepton scattering, only add up to about 30$\%$ of the spin of the proton is still not understood after 30 years. We show that our newly developed model for…
Different decompositions (sum rules) for the proton mass have been proposed in the literature. All of them are related to the energy-momentum tensor in quantum chromodynamics. We review and revisit these decompositions by paying special…

I deduce an inequality between the helicity and the transversity distribution of a quark in a nucleon, at small energy scales. Then I establish, thanks to the positivity constraint, a rigorous bound on longitudinally polarized valence quark…

Some higher twist corrections to the Bjorken sum rule are estimated in the framework of a quark-diquark model of the nucleon. The parameters of the model have been previously fixed by fitting the measured higher twist corrections to the…

In-medium sum rules following from the chiral charge algebra of QCD are reviewed, and new sum rules are derived. The new sum rules relate the I^G(J^{PC})=1^-(0^{++}) excitations (quantum numbers of a_0(980)) to the scalar and isovector…
The Drell-Hearn-Gerasimov and Bjorken sum rules are special examples of dispersive sum rules for the spin-dependent structure function G_1(\nu, Q^2) at Q^2=0 and \infty. We generalize these sum rules through studying the virtual-photon…
