The bounds on the values of gluon, four-quark and quark-gluon condensates are derived from the requirement of consistency of the sum rules for various correlators of the hybrid current $a_{\mu}=g\bar d\gamma_{\rho}\tilde G_{\rho\mu}u$. The…
The gluon condensate, $\langle \frac{\alpha_s}{\pi} G^2 \rangle$, i.e. the leading order power correction in the operator product expansion of current correlators in QCD at short distances, is determined from $e^+ e^-$ annihilation data in…
Charmonium sum rules are analyzed with the primary goal to obtain the restrictions on the value of dimension 4 gluon condensate. The moments M_n(Q^2) of the polarization operator of vector charm currents are calculated and compared with…
We test the convergence of the QCD exponential moments by including PT corrections to order \alpha_s^3 and the NP contributions up to D=8 <G^4> condensates. Then, using the ratio of exponential sum rules where the QCD PT series is more…
The charmonium sum rules for the axial-vector current are considered. The three-loop perturbative corrections, operators up to 8 dimension and perturbative corrections to the lowest dimension operator are accounted. The contribution of the…
I propose that the properties of QCD perturbation theory should be investigated when the boundary state (`perturbative vacuum') at $t= \pm\infty$ includes gluons. Any boundary state that has an overlap with the true QCD ground state…
The coefficient functions of the gluon condensate $<G^2>$, in the correlators of heavy-quark vector, axial, scalar and pseudoscalar currents, are obtained analytically, to two loops, for all values of $z=q^2/4m^2$. In the limiting cases…
The quark-gluon mixed condensate $g<\bar q \sigma_{\mu\nu} F_{\mu\nu} q>$ is calculated in the Gaussian approximation of the Field Correlator Method. In the large N_c limit and for zero mass quarks one obtains a simple result, $m^2_0 \equiv…
The normalization of the gluon condensate and of renormalon-related power corrections in QCD is computed under the assumption that their ``perturbative'' part dominates over any eventual extra contribution from the non-trivial vacuum. The…
Correlations between the QCD coupling \alpha_s, the gluon condensate < \alpha_s G^2 >, and the c,b-quark running masses m_c,b in the MS-scheme are explicitly studied (for the first time) from the (axial-)vector and (pseudo)scalar charmonium…
We review briefly and in retrospect the development which brought about the QCD sum rules based on introduction of the gluon condensate (M.A. Shifman, A.I. Vainshtein, and V.I. Zakharov (1978)).
We propose to calculate the gluon condensate in lattice QCD in an indirect way by extracting it from the correlator of hadronic currents of heavy quarks. Moments (derivatives with respect to momentum at vanishing momentum) of the vector and…
We reconsider the extraction of the gluon condensates <alpha_s G^2>, <g^3f_{abc} G^3> and the MS running quark masses m_{c,b} from different M_n(Q^2) Moments and their Ratios by including PT corrections to order alpha_s^3, NPT terms up to…
We derive here the equation of state for quark matter with a nontrivial vacuum structure in QCD at finite temperature and baryon density. Using thermofield dynamics, the parameters of thermal vacuum and the gluon condensate function are…
Under assumption of singular behavior of alpha_s(q^2) at q^2 sim 0 and of large q^2 behavior, corresponding to the perturbation theory up to four loops, a procedure is considered of matching the beta-function at a boundary of perturbative…
Nonlocal gluon condensates are vacuum expectations of the product of gluon field strength tensors. Short-distance expansions of two-, three-, and four-gluon condensates are presented up to dimension-8 local operators. We propose a method…
The gauge invariant two-point correlator for the gluon field strength tensor in analysed by means of the QCD sum rule method. To this end, we make use of a relation of this correlator to a two-point function for a quark-gluon hybrid in the…

An expression for the photon condensate in quantum electrodynamics is presented and generalized to deduce a simple relation between the gluon condensate and the running coupling constant of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). Ambiguities in…
We determine the non-perturbative gluon condensate of four-dimensional SU(3) gauge theory in a model independent way. This is achieved by carefully subtracting high order perturbation theory results from non-perturbative lattice QCD…
