Perturbative QCD (pQCD) running coupling a(Q^2) (=alpha_s(Q^2)/pi) is expected to get modified at low spacelike momenta 0 < Q^2 < 1 GeV^2 so that, instead of having unphysical (Landau) singularities it remains smooth and finite there, due…

In a recent paper, wavelet analysis was used to perturb the coupling matrix in an array of identical chaotic systems in order to improve its synchronization. As the synchronization criterion is determined by the second smallest eigenvalue…
In quantum theory, physical amplitudes are usually presented in the form of Feynman perturbation series in powers of coupling constant $\al .$ However, it is known that these amplitudes are not regular functions at $\alpha=0 .$ For QCD, we…

QCD with two flavours of massless colour-sextet quarks is considered as a model for conformal/walking Technicolor. If this theory possess an infrared fixed point, as indicated by 2-loop perturbation theory, it is a conformal(unparticle)…
The experimental data obtained for the polarized Bjorken sum rule \Gamma^{(p-n)}_1(Q^2) for small values of Q2 are approximated by the predictions obtained in the framework of analytic QCD up to the 5th order perturbation theory, whose…
It is shown that analytic properties of standard QCD perturbation theory contradict known spectral properties,and contain in particular IR generated ghost poles and cuts. As an outcome the rigorous background perturbation theory is…
For a large class of quantum mechanical models of matter and radiation we develop an analytic perturbation theory for non-degenerate ground states. This theory is applicable, for example, to models of matter with static nuclei and…
A particular choice of renormalization, within the simplifications provided by the non-perturbative property of Effective Locality, leads to a completely finite, renormalized theory of QCD, in which all correlation functions can, in…
As was discovered recently, 5-loop perturbative quenched QED approximation to the QED $\beta$-function consist from the rational term and the term proportional to $\zeta(3)$-function. It is stressed, that this feature is also manifesting…
Part I is devoted to the extraction of the QCD coupling from a bound state approach at low energy scales, where unphysical singularities make the RG-improved pQCD useless. Theoretical results on the meson spectrum based on a Bethe-Salpeter…
We revisit the standard procedure to match non-perturbative models to perturbative QCD, using experimental data. The strong coupling constant plays a central role in the QCD evolution of parton densities. We will extend this procedure with…
We further develop the approach recently used to construct an analytic ghost-free model for the QCD running coupling based on the requirement of the $Q^2$-analyticity and apply it to the process of $e^+e^-$ annihilation into hadrons to…

The Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) coupling $\alpha_s$ is a central parameter in the Standard Model of particle physics. However, it depends on theoretical conventions related to renormalisation and hence is not an observable quantity. In…
The Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) coupling, $\alpha_s$, is not a physical observable of the theory since it depends on conventions related to the renormalization procedure. We introduce a definition of the QCD coupling, denoted by…
