An Illustrative Example of How Quark-Hadron Duality Might Work

Abstract

We discuss the issue of the local quark-hadron duality at high energies in two- and four-dimensional QCD. A mechanism of the dynamical realization of the quark-hadron duality in two- dimensional QCD in the limit of large number of colors, N_c -> \infty, (the 't Hooft model) is considered. A similar mechanism of dynamical smearing may be relevant in four-dimensional QCD. Although particular details of our results are model-dependent, the general features of the duality implementation conjectured previously get further support.
