This talk first discusses some aspects of the chiral expansion with three light flavours related to the (non) applicability of the OZI rule. Next, the extension of ChPT to an effective theory of the full standard model is considered. Some…

We investigate a model QCD sum rule for the pion wave function $\varphi_{\pi}(x)$ based on the non-diagonal correlator whose perturbative spectral density vanishes and $\Phi(x,M^2)$, the theoretical side of the sum rule, consists of…
The nucleon and its negative-parity excited states are examined in a maximum entropy method analysis of QCD sum rules. First, we rederive the parity projected sum rules for baryons using forward correlation functions. Doing this, the method…
We study pentaquark $\Theta^{+} (I=0,J=1/2)$ in the QCD sum rules emphasizing that we can not extract any properties of the pentaquark outside of the Borel window. To find the appropriate Borel window, we prepare a favorable set up of the…

Two new QCD sum rules for nucleon tensor charge are derived from a mixed correlator of spin-1/2 and spin-3/2 nucleon interpolating fields. These sum rules are analyzed along with a sum rule obtained from the usual correlator of a general…
We simulate four flavor noncompact lattice QED using the Hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm on $10^4$ and $16^4$ lattices. Measurements of the monopole susceptibility and the percolation order parameter indicate a transition at $\beta = {1/e^2} =…
The form factors of the semileptonic $B\to \pi\pi\ell\bar\nu$ decay are calculated from QCD light-cone sum rules with the distribution amplitudes of dipion states. This method is valid in the kinematical region, where the hadronic dipion…
Non-compact lattice QED with two flavors of light dynamical quarks is simulated on $16^4$ lattices, and the chiral condensate, monopole density and susceptibility and the meson masses are measured. Data from relatively high statistics runs…
We derive two new sum rules for the unpolarized doubly virtual Compton scattering process on a nucleon, which establish novel low-$Q^2$ relations involving the nucleon's generalized polarizabilities and moments of the nucleon's unpolarized…
We revisit $F_\pi(Q^2)$ and $F_{P\gamma}(Q^2)$, $P=\pi,\eta,\eta'$, making use of the local-duality (LD) version of QCD sum rules. We give arguments, that the LD sum rule provides reliable predictions for these form factors at $Q^2 \ge 5-6$…

Starting from the QCD sum rules with nonlocal condensates for the pion distribution amplitude, we derive another sum rule for its derivative and its "integral" derivatives---defined in this work. We use this new sum rule to analyze the fine…
Correlators of the octet baryons in the hot pion gas are studied in the framework of the QCD sum rule. The condensates appearing in the OPE side of the correlators become T-dependent through the interaction with thermal pions. We present an…
