Recent QCD sum rule determinations of the light quark masses are reviewed. In the case of the strange quark mass, possible uncertainties are discussed in the framework of finite energy sum rules.

We present a study of the isospin-breaking (IB) corrections to pseudoscalar (PS) meson masses using the gauge configurations produced by the ETM Collaboration with Nf = 2+1+1 dynamical quarks at three lattice spacings varying from 0.089 to 0.062 fm. Our method is based on a combined expansion of the path integral in powers of the small parameters [see formula in PDF] and αem, where [see formula in PDF] is the renormalized quark mass and αem the renormalized fine structure constant. We obtain results for the pion, kaon and Dmeson mass splitting; for the Dashen’s theorem violation parameters ϵγ(MM, 2 GeV), ϵπ0 ϵK0(MS, 2 GeV) for the light quark masses [see formula in PDF] for the flavour symmetry breaking parameters R(MS, 2 GeV) and Q(MS, 2 GeV) and for the strong IB effects on the kaon decay constants.

The standard procedure to determine (analytically) the values of the quark masses is to relate QCD two-point functions to experimental data in the framework of QCD sum rules. In the case of the light quark sector, the ideal Green function is the pseudoscalar correlator which involves the quark masses as an overall multiplicative factor. For the past thirty years this method has been affected by systematic uncertainties originating in the hadronic resonance sector, thus limiting the accuracy of the results. Recently, a major breakthrough has been made allowing for a considerable reduction of these systematic uncertainties and leading to light quark masses accurate to better than 8%. This procedure will be described in this talk for the up-, down-, strange-quark masses, after a general introduction to the method of QCD sum rules.

The basis of the material discussed is our work in collaboration with Arnulfo Zepeda from 1979 [Nucl. Phys. B164, 25 (1980)]. The ingredients and consequences of this work will be presented, and compared with results obtained from QCD sum rules and lattice simulations of QCD in accordance with chiral expansions. An up-to-date conclusion will not be possible in this paper, but some comments towards such goal will be given in a concluding section.

We investigate twist-three distribution amplitudes (DAs) of η and η' using QCD sum rules. Zeroth moments of light quark DAs of η and η' are evaluated and compared with those found in other approaches. The decay constants of the octet axial vector current in the η and η' system are also estimated.
