QCD sum rules are based on the Operator Product Expansion of current correlators, and on QCD-hadron duality. An extension of this program to finite temperature is discussed. This allows for a study of deconfinement and chiral-symmetry…
We extend an earlier, configuration space method to find the Wilson coefficients of operators appearing in the short distance expansion of thermal correlation functions of different quark bilinears. Considering all the different correlation…
We address some criticisms by Eletsky and Ioffe on the extension of QCD sum rules to finite temperature. We argue that this extension is possible, provided the Operator Product Expansion and QCD-hadron duality remain valid at non-zero…
We review the status of the practical operator product expansion (OPE), when applied to two-point correlators of QCD currents which interpolate to mesonic resonances, in view of the violations of local quark-hadron duality. Covered topics…
The Operator Product Expansion (OPE) of current correlators at short distances beyond perturbation theory in QCD, together with Cauchy's theorem in the complex energy plane, are the pillars of the method of QCD sum rules. This technique…
We call into question a recently proposed idea on how the short-distance behavior of QCD correlation functions constrains hadronic states to become degenerate parity eigenstates as one goes up in the spectrum. In particular, we point out…
In this paper, we investigate operator product expansion for thermal correlation function of the two scalar currents. Due to breakdown of Lorentz invariance at finite temperature, more operators of the same dimension appear in the operator…
The quark (gluon)-hadron duality constitutes a basis for the theoretical treatment of a wide range of inclusive processes -- from hadronic \tau decays and R_{e^+e^-}, to semileptonic and nonleptonic decay rates of heavy flavor hadrons. A…
Current correlators in QCD at a finite temperature $T$ are considered from the viewpoint of operator product expansion. It is stressed that at low $T$ the heat bath must be represented by hadronic, and not quark-gluon states. A possibility…
We consider quark-hadron duality relations and QCD sum rules for correlators involving exotic tetraquark currents, here specializing to the case of quark-exchange processes. We point out the differences they exhibit with respect to the…
Local quark-hadron duality violations in conventional applications of the operator product expansion are proposed to have their origin in the fact that the QCD vacuum or a hadronic state is not only characterized by nonvanishing expectation…
The role of the operator-product expansion in QCD calculations is discussed. Approximating the two-point correlation function by several terms and assuming an upper bound on the truncation error along the euclidean ray, we consider two…
Fluctuations and correlations of conserved quantities in the confined phase of QCD are a viable way to characterize the existence of exotic and missing states with given quantum numbers in the hadronic spectrum. We study a realization of…
We derive thermal QCD sum rules for the correlation function of two vector currents in the rho-meson channel. It takes into account the leading non-perturbative corrections from the additional operators, which appear due to the breakdown of…
Thermal Finite Energy QCD sum rules for the vector current correlator are used to study quark-gluon deconfinement. Assuming $\rho$-meson saturation of the correlator in the hadronic sector, and the Operator Product Expansion in QCD, we…
We generalize the sum rule approach to investigate the nonperturbative structure of QCD at high temperature. Salient features of the QCD phase above $T_c$ are discussed, and included in the form of power corrections or condensate…
2-point correlators of vector and axial currents, obtained from tau-decay data, are studied within the framework of perturbative QCD and Operator Product Expansion. Various sum rules, obtained from Borel transformation of the correlators in…
Though the operator product expansion is applicable in the calculation of current correlation functions in the Euclidean region, when approaching the Minkowskian domain, violations of quark-hadron duality are expected to occur, due to the…
We investigate the low-temperature phase of QCD and the crossover region with two light flavors of quarks. The chiral expansion around the point $(T,m=0)$ in the temperature vs. quark-mass plane indicates that a sharp real-time excitation…
We analyse the so-called violations of quark-hadron duality in Finite Energy Sum Rules with the LR correlator, through the study of the possible high-energy behavior of the LR spectral function, taking into account all known short-distance…
