Abstract
We study the vector and axial-vector current correlators in perturbative and nonperturbative regimes of QCD. The correlators in Euclidean coordinate space are calculated on the lattice using the Möbius domain-wall fermion formulation at three lattice spacings covering 0.044–0.080 fm. The dynamical quark effects of light flavors are included. The sum and the difference of the vector () and axial-vector () current correlators calculated on the lattice after extrapolating to the physical point agree with those converted from the ALEPH experimental data of hadronic decays. The level of the agreement in the channel is about or smaller in the region of , while that in the channel is about at and smaller at other distances. We also extract the chiral condensate from the short-distance correlators on the lattice using the partially conserved axial current relation. Its result extrapolated to the chiral and continuum limit is compatible with other estimates at low energies.
