Abstract

We calculate, within massless QCD, two-point correlator of nonlocal (composite) vector quark currents with arbitrary-length chains of the simplest fermion loops being inserted into gluon lines. Within the large $${{n}_{f}}$$ (or large $${{\beta }_{0}}$$ ) approximation, the correlator defines a perturbative contribution to the leading-twist distribution amplitudes for light mesons. Our results are consistent with a number of special cases in the literature. We consider functionals of the correlator, which are important for the phenomenology, and their properties as functional series.
