In the QCD sum rules for the tetraquark (molecular) states, the higher dimensional vacuum condensates play an important role in extracting the tetraquark masses. We carry out the operator product expansion up to the vacuum condensates of dimension-10 and observe that the vacuum condensates of dimensions $6$, $8$ and $10$ have the same expressions but opposite signs for the $Cgamma_5otimes gamma_mu C$-type and $Cotimes gamma_mu C$ type four-quark currents, which make their influences distinguishable, and they are excellent channels to examine the vacuum saturation approximation. We introduce a parameter $kappa$ to parameterize the derivation from the vacuum saturation or factorization approximation, and choose two sets parameters to examine the influences on the predicted tetraquark masses, which can be confronted to the experimental data in the future. In all the channels, smaller value of the $kappa$ leads to better convergent behavior in the operator product expansion, which favors the vacuum saturation approximation.

We briefly review the key aspect of the QCD instanton vacuum in relation to the quantum breaking of conformal symmetry and the trace anomaly. We use Ji$^prime s$ invariant mass decomposition of the energy momentum tensor together with the trace anomaly, to discuss the mass budget of the nucleon and pion in the QCD instanton vacuum. A measure of the gluon condensate in the nucleon, is a measure of the compressibility of the QCD instanton vacuum as a dilute topological liquid.
It is shown that gauge field configurations with higher topological charge modify the structure of the QCD vacuum, which is reflected in its dependence on the CP-violating topological phase $theta$. To explore this, topological susceptibilities and the production of axion dark matter are studied here. The former characterize the topological charge distribution and are therefore sensitive probes of the topological structure of QCD. The latter depends on the effective potential of axions, which is determined by the $theta$-dependence of QCD. The production of cold dark matter through the vacuum realignement mechanism of axions can therefore be affected by higher topological charge effects. This is discussed qualitatively in the deconfined phase at high temperatures, where a description based on a dilute gas of instantons with arbitrary topological charge is valid. As a result, topological susceptibilities exhibit a characteristic temperature dependence due to anharmonic modifications of the $theta$-dependence. Furthermore, multi-instanton effects give rise to a topological mechanism to increase the amount of axion dark matter.
The QCD vacuum condensates in the Operator Product Expansion are extracted from the final ALEPH data on vector and axial-vector spectral functions from $tau$-decay. Weighted Finite Energy Sum Rules are employed in the framework of both Fixed Order and Contour Improved Perturbation Theory. An overall consistent picture satisfying chirality constraints can be achieved only for values of the QCD scale below some critical value $Lambdasimeq350 {MeV}$. For larger values of $Lambda$, perturbation theory overwhelms the power corrections. A strong correlation is then found between $Lambda$ and the resulting values of the condensates. Reasonable accuracy is obtained up to dimension $d=8$, beyond which no meaningful extraction is possible.
We analyze the chiral symmetries of flavored quantum chromodynamics in two dimensions and show the existence of chiral condensates within the path-integral approach. The massless and massive cases are discussed as well, for arbitrary finite and infinite number of colors. Our results put forward the question of topological issues when matter is in the fundamental representation of the gauge group.
We investigate a model QCD sum rule for the pion wave function $varphi_{pi}(x)$ based on the non-diagonal correlator whose perturbative spectral density vanishes and $Phi(x,M^2)$, the theoretical side of the sum rule, consists of condensate contributions only. We study the dependence of $Phi(x,M^2)$ on the Borel parameter $M^2$ and observe that $Phi(x,M^2)$ has a humpy form, with the humps becoming more and more pronounced when $M^2$ increases. We demonstrate that this phenomenon reflects just the oscillatory nature of the higher states wave functions, while the lowest state wave function $varphi_{pi}(x)$ extracted from our QCD sum rule analysis,has no humps, is rather narrow and its shape is close to the asymptotic form $varphi_{pi}^{as}(x) = 6x(1-x)$.
