We compute the nonleptonic weak decay width of a heavy-light meson in 1+1 spacetime dimensions with a large number of QCD colors (the 't Hooft model) as a function of the heavy quark mass. In this limit, QCD is exactly soluble, and decay…
Explicit quark-hadron duality in the limit of heavy quark mass is studied using the 't Hooft model, where both partonic and hadronic amplitudes may be computed exactly. Results for weak decays of heavy mesons are presented for both standard…
We study local quark-hadron duality and its violation for the $D^0-\bar{D}^0$, $B^0_d-\bar{B}^0_d$ and $B^0_s-\bar{B}^0_s$ mixings in the 't Hooft model, offering a laboratory to test QCD in two-dimensional spacetime together with the…
Pauli Interference in decays of heavy flavor mesons, a genuinely nonleptonic nonperturbative effect, is considered in the 't Hooft model. Analytic summation of the exclusive decay widths yields the same expression as obtained in the…
We average the decay width of a heavy meson in the t' Hooft model over the heavy quark mass M with a smooth weight function. The averaging has support over a few resonance spacings. We use the previously determined heavy meson decay width…
We address nonperturbative power corrections to inclusive decay widths of heavy flavor hadrons in the context of the 't Hooft model (two-dimensional QCD at N_c->oo), with the emphasis on the spectator-dependent effects sensitive to the…
We address numerical aspects of local quark-hadron duality using the example of the exactly solvable 't Hooft model, two-dimensional QCD with N_c --> infinity. The primary focus of these studies is total semileptonic decay widths relevant…
The 't Hooft model (two-dimensional QCD in the limit of large number of colors) is used as a laboratory for exploring various aspects of the heavy quark expansions in the nonleptonic and semileptonic decays of heavy flavors. We perform a…
We compare the effects of different quark diagram topologies on the weak hadronic width of heavy-light mesons in the large N_c limit. We enumerate the various topologies and show that the only one dominant (or even comparable) in powers of…
We study the lifetimes and inclusive semileptonic decay widths of doubly heavy baryons within the framework of heavy quark expansion. Our analysis includes next-to-leading-order corrections to the dimension-3, -5, and -6 operators, together…
We discuss (i) the evaluation of the expectation values of four-quark operators assuming that the heavy quark expansion for $b$ sector converges at the third order in $1/m_Q$, and (ii) the estimation of the duality breaking short distance…
We discuss the issue of the local quark-hadron duality at high energies in two- and four-dimensional QCD. A mechanism of the dynamical realization of the quark-hadron duality in two- dimensional QCD in the limit of large number of colors,…
A phenomenological analysis of lifetimes of bottom and charmed hadrons within the framework of the heavy quark expansion is performed. The baryon matrix element is evaluated using the bag model and the nonrelativistic quark model. We find…
In this work we discuss the theoretical status for the study of the lifetime of heavy hadrons. After presenting some introductory topics like the effective weak Hamiltonian and the heavy quark effective theory (HQET), we describe the…
We pursue the issue of the local quark-hadron duality at high energies in two- and four-dimensional QCD. A mechanism of the dynamical realization of the quark-hadron duality in two-dimensional QCD in the limit of large number of colors,…
We study in detail deep inelastic scattering in the 't Hooft model. We are able to analytically check current conservation and to obtain analytic expressions for the matrix elements with relative precision O(1/Q^2) for 1-x >> \beta^2/Q^2.…
The status of heavy quark expansions for charm and beauty lifetime ratios is reviewed. Taking note of the surprising semiquantitative success of this description for charm hadrons I interprete the new data on $\tau (D_s)$ and re-iterate the…
We continue analytical study of the meson mass spectrum in the large-$N_c$ two-dimensional QCD, known as the 't Hooft model, by addressing the most general case of quarks with unequal masses. Based on our previous work, we develop…
The total decay widths of heavy mesons can be systematically calculated in terms of an expansion in the two parameters $1/m_Q$ and $\alpha_s(m_Q)$, where $Q=c,b$ denotes the heavy quark. The dominant contributions to meson lifetime…
Assuming so called global duality we argue that it is very likely that local duality needed to obtain results for the hadronic width of heavy meson decays within the $1/m_Q$ expansion holds. Hence, if the discrepancy between experiment and…
