QCD Sum Rules and the Determination of Leading Twist Non-Singlet Operator Matrix Elements

We use QCD sum rules to determine directly the leading-twist non-singlet operator matrix elements based on calculations of three-point correlator functions in configuration space. We find a different result from that obtained by integrating the structure functions' expressions obtained by Belyaev and Ioffe based on calculations of four-point correlators in momentum space. The origin of this discrepancy remains unclear.Comment: 9 pages, 5 figure

Rigid supersymmetry with boundaries

We construct rigidly supersymmetric bulk-plus-boundary actions, both in $x$-space and in superspace. For each standard supersymmetric bulk action a minimal supersymmetric bulk-plus-boundary action follows from an extended $F$- or $D$-term formula. Additional separately supersymmetric boundary actions can be systematically constructed using co-dimension one multiplets (boundary superfields). We also discuss the orbit of boundary conditions which follow from the Euler-Lagrange variational principle.Comment: 28 pages, JHEP clas

Delta-Isobar Magnetic Form Factor in QCD

We consider the QCD sum rules approach for Delta-isobar magnetic form factor in the infra-red region $0<Q^2<1GeV^2$. The QCD sum rules in external variable field are used. The obtained formfactor is in agreement with quark model predictions for the Delta-isobar magnetic moment.Comment: 13 pages, CEBAF-TH-93-02, Latex, 1 Figur

Cumulant Expansion and Monthly Sum Derivative

Cumulant expansion is used to derive accurate closed-form approximation for Monthly Sum Options in case of constant volatility model. Payoff of Monthly Sum Option is based on sum of $N$ caped (and probably floored) returns. It is noticed, that $1/\sqrt{N}$ can be used as a small parameter in Edgeworth expansion. First two leading terms of this expansion are calculated here. It is shown that the suggest closed-form approximation is in a good agreement with numerical results for typical mode parameters.Comment: 8 pages, 2 figure

Massless Fermions on the Lattice

We consider a nonlocal lattice action for fermions fermion doubling in lattice theories. It is shown, that it is possible to avoid the fermionic doubling in the case of free fermions, but this approach does not reproduce results for the effective action for gauge fields in the continuum theory, because the high frequency fermion modes have a strong dependence on the gauge field.Comment: 16 pages, LATEX, 1 Figure (uuencoded PS-file is attached to the end of the LATEX file
