We give the results of a simple model for the diagonal and off-diagonal valence quark distributions of a pion. We show that structure can be implemented in a gauge-invariant manner. This explicit model questions the validityof the momentum sum rule, and gives an explicit counter-example to the Wandzura-Wilczek ansatz for twist-3 GPD's.
The pion structure function is investigated in a simple pseudo-scalar coupling model of pion and constituent quark fields. The imaginary part of the forward Compton scattering amplitude is evaluated. We show that the introduction of non-perturbative effects, linked through a cut-off to the size of the pion, allows the reproduction of important features of the pion quark distribution function.
We present a method to evaluate the pion structure functions from a box diagram calculation. Pion and constituent quark fields are coupled through the simplest pseudoscalar coupling. The gamma^* pi -> q \bar q cross-section is evaluated and related to the structure functions. We then show that the introduction of non-perturbative effects, related to the pion size and preserving gauge invariance, provides us with a straighforward relation with the quark distribution. It is predicted that higher-twist terms become negligible for Q^2 larger than about 2 GeV^2 and that quarks in the pion have a momentum fraction smaller than in the proton. We enlarge the discussion concerning this violation of the momentum sum rule, emphasizing that the sum rule is recovered in the chiral limit and also when the finite size condition is not imposed.
The pion structure function is investigated in a simple model, where the pion and its constituent quark fields are coupled through the simplest pseudoscalar coupling. The imaginary part of the forward gamma* pi -> gamma* pi scattering amplitude is evaluated and related to the structure functions. It is shown that the introduction of non-perturbative effects, linked to the size of the pion, allows a connection with the quark distribution. It is predicted that higher-twist terms become negligible for Q^2 larger than ~2 GeV^2, that quarks in the pion have a momentum fraction smaller than in the proton case, and that the momentum sum rule is violated for the pion.

We use a modified version of the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model which implements the QCD trace anomaly to calculate the two photons decay width of the glueball (f_0(1500)) and of the two scalar mesons (f_0(1370), f_{J=0}(1710)) to which it is mixed. We investigate the effect of this mixing over the coupling constants of the f_0 states to the quarks.
The chiral phase transition of a hot and dense system of quarks is studied within a modified SU(3) NJL lagrangian that implements the QCD scale anomaly. The u- and s-quark condensates can feel or not the same chiral restoration depending on the considered region of the 3-dimension space T_c(μ_uc,μ_sc). The temperature behaviour of the pressure and of the energy and entropy densities of the u- and s-quark system is investigated. At high temperature, the non-vanishing bare s-quark mass only modifies slightly the usual behaviour associated with an ideal quark gas.
A scaled SU(3) Nambu - Jona-Lasinio Lagrangian is used to compute the mass of the nine scalar mesons in the vacuum and the mass of the gluball. It is shown that a suitable choice of the vacuum gluon condensate allows to reproduce the experimental masses of the scalar mesons except for the {$K^*_{0}$}(1430). This choice corresponds to a weak coupling between the gluon and quark condensates, giving a {$f_{0}$}(1500) or a {$f_{J}$}(1710) which is nearly a pure glueball.
