I review recent lattice QCD results on a few selected topics which are relevant to the heavy ion physics community. Special emphasis is put on the QCD equation of state at vanishing and nonzero baryon chemical potential, the onset of…
We summarize the standard factorization theorems for hard processes in QCD, and describe their proofs.
Recent achievements in the heavy quark theory are critically reviewed. The emphasis is put on those aspects which either did not attract enough attention or cause heated debates in the current literature. Among other topics we discuss (i)…
Some interesting heavy-flavor questions are mentioned that may yield to the methods of lattice QCD. Special emphasis is placed on topics which arise in the discussion of CP violation in $B$ decays. Other subjects include quarkonium and…
The masses of excited heavy mesons are studied with sum rules in the heavy quark effective theory. A set of interpolating currents creating (annihilating) excited heavy mesons with arbitrary spin and parity are proposed and their properties…
We discuss the QCD sum rule calculation of the heavy-quark effective theory parameters, $\lambda_E$ and $\lambda_H$, which correspond to matrix elements representing quark-gluon three-body components in the $B$-meson wavefunction. We derive…
There exists a large field for phenomenological models in which the knowledge of the structure of hadrons in terms of QCD constituents obtained from deep inelastic scatterings is related to their behaviour in soft processes. One of the…
It is shown how the QCD sum rules can be applied for the investigation of the density dependence of the nucleon parameters. These characteristics can be expressed through the expectation values of QCD operators in nuclear matter. In certain…
We derive QCD light-cone sum rules for the hadronic matrix elements of the heavy baryon transitions to nucleon. In the correlation functions the $\Lambda_c,\Sigma_c$ and $\Lambda_b$ -baryons are interpolated by three-quark currents and the…
The status of theoretical studies of the $H$ dibaryon is reviewed. Some recent developments including the effect of the instanton induced interaction and the QCD sum rule results are discussed in detail.
QCD sum rules are evaluated at finite nucleon densities and temperatures to determine the change of pole mass parameters for the lightest vector mesons $\rho$, $\omega$ and $\phi$ in a strongly interacting medium at conditions relevant for…
Borel transformed QCD sum rules conventionally use a real valued parameter (the Borel mass) for specifying the exponential weight over which hadronic spectral functions are averaged. In this paper, it is shown that the Borel mass can be…
This review article discusses the experimental and theoretical status of various Parton Model sum rules. The basis of the sum rules in perturbative QCD is discussed. Their use in extracting the value of the strong coupling constant is…
In our quest to win a deeper understanding of how QCD actually works, the study of the binding of heavy quarkonia and heavy-flavor hadrons to atomic nuclei offers enormous promise. Modern experimental facilities such as FAIR, Jefferson Lab…
We consider heavy quark contributions to the polarized Bjorken sum rule. We found good agreement between the experimental data and the predictions of analytic QCD. To satisfy the limit of photoproduction, we use new representation of the…
In this talk I report on recent progress in a few areas closely related to the virtual Compton scattering studies. In particular, I discuss the quark-hadron duality estimate of the $\gamma^* p \to \Delta^+$ transition, QCD sum rule…
The moments of the heavy quark-parton distribution functions in a heavy pseudoscalar meson are calculated from QCD sum rules. Expanding these sum rules in the inverse heavy quark mass we obtain the heavy-mass limits of the moments.…
Within QCD, colourless states may be constructed corresponding to exotic matter outside of the traditional quark model. Experiments have recently observed tetraquark and pentaquark states, but no definitive hybrid meson signals have been…
The masses of baryons containing a heavy quark are calculated to next-to-leading order in partially quenched heavy hadron chiral perturbation theory. Calculations are performed for three light flavors in the isospin limit and additionally…
The current status of theoretical QCD calculations and experimental measurements of the Gottfried sum rule are discussed. The interesting from our point of view opened problems are summarised. Among them is the task of estimating the…
