Coupling Constant and Quark Loop Expansion for Corrections to the Valence Approximation

For full QCD vacuum expectation values we construct an expansion in quark loop count and in powers of a coupling constant. The leading term in this expansion is the valence (quenched) approximation vacuum expectation value. Higher terms give corrections to the valence approximation. A test of the expansion is presented for moderately heavy quarks on a small lattice. We consider briefly an application of the expansion to quarkonium-glueball mixing.
