We explore the perturbative QCD corrections to the inclusive semileptonic decays of $B$ mesons. In inclusive $B$ decay processes the parton picture works well and the scaling feature manifests because the mass of $b$ quark is larger than…

The anomalous dimension of the heavy-light quark current in HQET is calculated with three-loop accuracy, as well as the renormalized heavy-quark propagator. The NNL perturbative correction to f_B/f_D is obtained.
We compute the 1-jettiness soft function for the decay of a heavy quark into a light quark jet plus colorless particles at three-loop order in soft-collinear effective theory. The 1-jettiness measurement fixes the total small light-cone…
We describe a representation of the leading B-meson light-cone distribution amplitude in heavy-quark effective theory based on the eigenfunctions of its anomalous dimension kernel. In this representation (called the dual LCDA) different…
A method of computing two-loop fermionic contributions to the width of a heavy quark is described. An analytical formula for this effect in the limit of mass of the quark much larger than the decay products is obtained for the first time.…
We compute the one-loop correction to the forward matrix element of an off-light-cone bi-local quark correlator characterised by a space-like separation $z^2$ in the presence of heavy quarks with mass $m$. This calculation allows us to…
We present exact results, at next-to-leading order in renormalization-group improved perturbation theory, for the Wilson coefficients appearing at order 1/m_Q in the heavy-quark expansion of heavy-light current operators. To this end, we…
We find that the evolution equation for the three-particle quark-gluon B-meson light-cone distribution amplitude (DA) of subleading twist is completely integrable in the large $N_c$ limit and can be solved exactly. The lowest anomalous…

The widely used nonperturbative wave functions and distribution functions of QCD are determined as matrix elements of light-ray operators. These operators appear as large momentum limit of nonlocal hadron operators or as summed up local…
We discuss the relation between partonic distributions near the phase space boundary and Wilson loop expectation values calculated along paths partially lying on the light-cone. Due to additional light-cone singularities, multiplicative…
