We discuss the necessary, albeit not sufficient, conditions for tetraquark poles to occur in the 1/N expansion of QCD and find the minimum order at which such poles may appear. Assuming tetraquark poles, we find a new non-planar solution with the minimal number of topologies and tetraquark species. The solution implies narrow states. Mixing with quarkonium states is allowed so that P-wave tetraquarks with J^PC=1^-- would couple to e^+e^-.

  1. Cluster reducibility of multiquark operators

    hep-ph 2019-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Gauge-invariant multiquark operators decompose into products of ordinary hadronic operators, which rules out fully compact multiquark bound states.

  2. Flavour-Exotic Tetraquarks in Large-$N_{\rm c}$ QCD: Do They Exist?

    hep-ph 2019-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Large-Nc QCD requires two flavour-exotic tetraquark states, but only one compact diquark-antidiquark configuration exists, so compact flavour-exotic tetraquarks likely do not exist.

  3. Tetraquark-Adequate QCD Sum Rules

    hep-ph 2019-08 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    QCD sum rules for tetraquarks should exclude unconnected meson-meson contributions; the corrected rules retain only diagrams of order alpha_s^2 or higher.
