Spectrality, coupling constant analyticity and the renormalization group

Abstract

Analytic structure in the strong coupling constant that emerges for some observables in QCD after duality averaging of renormalization group improved amplitudes is discussed. It is shown that perturbation theory calculations are justified for the proper observables related to the two-point correlators of hadronic currents the analytic properties of which are well-established. A particular case of gluonic current correlators is discussed in detail.
