Renormalized sum rules for structure functions of heavy mesons decays

We consider properties of the structure functions of inclusive heavy meson decays $B\to X_c$ and treat the $c$ quark mass as a free parameter. We show that in two extreme cases of heavy and light $c$ quark the structure functions of heavy--heavy and heavy--light transitions are given by a Fourier transform of the matrix elements of Wilson lines containing a time--like and a light--like segment, correspondingly. Using the renormalization properties of Wilson lines we find the dependence of the structure functions on the factorization scale, the structure function of heavy--heavy transition is renormalized multiplicatively while that of heavy-light transition obeys the GLAP--type evolution equation. We propose a generalization of the sum rules for the moments of the structure functions (Bjorken, Voloshin, and the ``third'' sum rules) with a soft exponential factorization cut--off, which correctly incorporates both perturbative and nonperturbative effects. We analyze nonperturbative corrections by first considering infrared renormalon contributions to the Wilson lines. Uncertainties induced by the leading renormalon pole at $u=\frac12$ are exactly cancelled by the similar uncertainty in the heavy quark pole mass. The leading nonperturbative corrections associated with the next renormalon at $u=1$ are parameterized by the matrix element $μ_π^2$ which is proportional to the heavy quark kinetic energy.

Matching QCD and HQET heavy--light currents at two loops and beyond

Heavy--light QCD currents are matched with HQET currents at two loops and leading order in $1/m$. A single formula applies to all current matchings. As a by--product, a master formula for the two--loop anomalous dimension of the QCD current $\bar{q}γ^{[μ_1}\ldotsγ^{μ_n]}q$ is obtained, yielding a new result for the tensor current. The dependence of matching coefficients on $γ_5$ prescriptions is elucidated. Ratios of QCD matrix elements are obtained, independently of the three--loop anomalous dimension of HQET currents. The two--loop coefficient in $f_{{\rm B}^*}/f_{\rm B} =1-2α_{\rm s}(m_b)/3π-K_bα_{\rm s}^2/π^2 +{\rm O}(α_{\rm s}^3,1/m_b)$ is \[K_b=\frac{83}{12}+\frac{4}{81}π^2+\frac{2}{27}π^2\log2-\frac19ζ(3) -\frac{19}{54}N_l+Δ_c=6.37+Δ_c\] with $N_l=4$ light flavours, and a correction, $Δ_c=0.18\pm0.01$, that takes account of the non--zero ratio $m_c/m_b=0.28\pm0.03$. Fastest apparent convergence would entail $α_{\rm s}(μ)$ at $μ=370$~MeV. ``Naive non--abelianization'' of large--$N_l$ results, via $N_l\to N_l-\frac{33}{2}$, gives reasonable approximations to exact two--loop results. All--order results for anomalous dimensions and matching coefficients are obtained at large $β_0=11-\frac23N_l$. Consistent cancellation between infrared-- and ultraviolet--renormalon ambiguities is demonstrated.

Couplings of heavy hadrons with soft pions from QCD sum rules

We estimate the couplings in the Heavy Hadron Chiral Theory (HHCT) lagrangian from the QCD sum rules in an external axial field. Stability of the sum rules at moderate values of the Borel parameter is poor that probably signals a slow convergence of the OPE series. At large values of the Borel parameter they stabilize, and yield the couplings much lower than the constituent quark model expectations. This region is not trustworthy for baryons, but in the meson case only unexpectedly large contributions of a few lowest excitations could invalidate the prediction $g_1\approx0.2$.
