Relativistic constituent quark model with infrared confinement
We refine the relativistic constituent quark model developed in our previous papers to include the confinement of quarks. It is done, first, by introducing the scale integration in the space of {alpha} parameters, and, second, by cutting this scale integration on the upper limit which corresponds to an infrared cutoff. In this manner one removes all possible thresholds present in the initial quark diagram. The cutoff parameter is taken to be the same for all physical processes. We adjust other model parameters by fitting the calculated quantities of the basic physical processes to available experimental data. As an application, we calculate the electromagnetic form factors of the pion and the transition form factors of the {omega} and {eta} Dalitz decays.

The Box anomaly and radiative decays of eta(eta-prime) mesons
We report on a confined quark model calculation of the transition form factors for the radiative decays of \eta(\eta')->\gamma l^+l^- and \eta(\eta')->\gamma\pi^+\pi^-. The \eta-\eta' mixing angle \theta_P is determined from the set of data on the electromagnetic \eta(\eta') decays. It is found that \theta_P\sim -16.5. The analysis of the dipionic mass distribution in the decay \eta'->\gamma\pi^+\pi^- confirms the existence of a non-resonant contribution which is the box anomaly.

Multiquark states in the covariant quark confinement model
This talk reviews the last applications of the covariant quark model for studying the properties of the multiquark states: B_s-meson (quark-antiquark state), light baryons (three-quark states) and tetraquark (four-quark state). The form factors of the B(B_s)-> P(V)-transitions are evaluated in the full kinematical region of momentum transfer squared. The widths of some B_s-nonleptonic decays are calculated. The static properties of the proton and neutron, and the \Lambda-hyperon (magnetic moments and charge radii) and the behavior of the nucleon form factors at low momentum transfers are described. The consequences of treating the X(3872) meson as a tetraquark bound state are explored. The decay widths of the observed channels X->J/\psi+2\pi (3\pi) and X-> \bar D^0 + D^0+\pi^0 via the intermediate off--shell states X-> J/\psi+\rho(\omega) and X-> \bar D + D^* are calculated. Its one-photon decay X-> \gamma+ J/\psi is also analyzed.

LEPTONIC AND SEMILEPTONIC DECAYS OF PSEUDOSCALAR MESONS
Abstract We employ the relativistic constituent quark model to give a unified description of the leptonic and semileptonic decays of pseudoscalar mesons ( π , K , D , D s , B , B s ). The calculated leptonic decay constants and form factors are found to be in good agreement with available experimental data and other approaches. We reproduce the results of spin-flavor symmetry in the heavy quark limit.

Discrete Symmetries Underlying Some Continuous Ones: Two Examples From Gravity And Particle Physics
Two examples, not connected at present, from author's papers (Nuovo Cim., 1992, v.105A, p.77 [hep-th/0207210] and GRG, 1999, v.31, p.1431 [gr-qc/0207017]) are considered here in which a physical model has discrete symmetries and additional non-observable coordinates or parameters. Then it is possible to introduce some apparent continuous symmetries of the model for an observer which cannot know values of these additional quantities.

Model of graviton-dusty universe
Primary features of a new cosmological model, which is based on conjectures about an existence of the graviton background and superstrong gravitational quantum interaction, are considered. An expansion of the universe is impossible in such the model because of deceleration of massive objects by the graviton background, which is similar to the one for the NASA deep space probes Pioneer 10, 11. Redshifts of remote objects are caused in the model by interaction of photons with the graviton background, and the Hubble constant depends on an intensity of interaction and an equivalent temperature of the graviton background. Virtual massive gravitons would be dark matter particles. They transfer energy, lost by luminous matter radiation, which in a final stage may be collected with black holes and other massive objects.

Gravitons as super-strong interacting particles, and low-energy quantum gravity
It is shown by the author that if gravitons are super-strong interacting particles and the low-temperature graviton background exists, the basic cosmological conjecture about the Dopplerian nature of redshifts may be false. In this case, a full magnitude of cosmological redshift would be caused by interactions of photons with gravitons. A new dimensional constant which characterizes one act of interaction is introduced and estimated. Non-forehead collisions with gravitons will lead to a very specific additional relaxation of any photonic flux. It gives a possibility of another interpretation of supernovae 1a data - without any kinematics. Of course, all of these facts may implicate a necessity to change the standard cosmological paradigm. Some features of a new paradigm are discussed here, too. A quantum mechanism of classical gravity based on an existence of this sea of gravitons is described for the Newtonian limit. This mechanism needs graviton pairing and "an atomic structure" of matter for working it, and leads to the time asymmetry. If the considered quantum mechanism of classical gravity is realized in the nature, than an existence of black holes contradicts to Einstein's equivalence principle. It is shown that in this approach the two fundamental constants - Hubble's and Newton's ones - should be connected between themselves. The theoretical value of the Hubble constant is computed. In this approach, every massive body would be decelerated due to collisions with gravitons that may be connected with the Pioneer 10 anomaly. It is shown that the predicted and observed values of deceleration are in good agreement. Some unsolved problems are discussed, so as possibilities to verify some conjectures in laser-based experiments.

The sea of super-strong interacting gravitons as the cause of gravity
The Newtonian attraction turns out to be the main statistical effect in the sea of super-strong interacting gravitons, with bodies themselves being not sources of gravitons - only correlational properties of in and out fluxes of gravitons in their neighbourhood are changed due to an interaction with bodies. Other quantum effects of low-energy quantum gravity are the following ones: redshifts, their analog - a deceleration of massive bodies, and an additional relaxation of any light flux.

Possible Manifestations of the Graviton Background
Possible effects are considered which would be caused by a hypothetical superstrong interaction of photons or massive bodies with single gravitons of the graviton background. If full cosmological redshift magnitudes are caused by the interaction, then the luminosity distance in a flat non-expanding universe as a function of redshift is very similar to the specific function which fits supernova cosmology data by Riess et al. From another side, in this case every massive body, slowly moving relatively to the background, would experience a constant acceleration, proportional to the Hubble constant, of the same order as a small additional acceleration of Pioneer 10, 11.
