Using the Euclidean path-integral formulation for the hadronic tensor, we show that the violation of the Gottfried sum rule does not come from the disconnected quark-loop insertion. Rather, it comes from the connected (quark line) insertion…
The parton distributions in the proton are evaluated dynamically using a nonlinear QCD evolution equation - the DGLAP equation with twist-4 (the GLR-MQ-ZSR) corrections - starting from a low scale $\mu^2$, where the nucleon consists of…
According to the path-integral formalism of the hadronic tensor, the nucleon sea contains two distinct components called connected sea (CS) and disconnected sea (DS). We discuss how the CS and DS are accessed in the lattice QCD calculation…

Double hard scattering can play an important role for producing multiparticle final states in hadron-hadron collisions. The associated cross sections depend on double parton distributions, which at present are only weakly constrained by…
We perform a global parton analysis of deep inelastic and related hard-scattering data, including ${\cal O}(\alpha_{\rm QED})$ corrections to the parton evolution. Although the quality of the fit is essentially unchanged, there are two…
Using a recursive algorithm to solve the renormalization group equations of N=1 QCD (DGLAP), we describe the most general supersymmetric evolution of the parton distributions. The analysis involves the regular DGLAP evolution, a partial…
We present particular and unique solutions of Dokshitzer-Gribov-Lipatov- Altarelli-Parisi (DGLAP) evolution equations for light sea and valence quark structure functions in leading order (LO). We obtain t evolutions of sea and valence quark…
DGLAP evolution equations are modified in order to use all the quark families in the full scale range, satisfying kinematical constraints and sumrules, thus having complete continuity for the pdfs and observables. Some consequences of this…
Aspects of the QCD parton densities are briefly reviewed, drawing some parallels to the density matrix formulation of quantum mechanics, exemplified by Wigner functions. We elaborate on the solution of their evolution equations using…
The asymptotic collinear factorisation theorem, which holds for diffractive deep-inelastic scattering, has important modifications in the sub-asymptotic HERA regime. We use perturbative QCD to quantify these modifications. The diffractive…
We report on recent work concerning the effect which the change in vacuum structure (negative energy Dirac sea), in the presence of a confining scalar field, has on the nucleon structure functions and parton distributions. Using the Dirac…
A simple model is presented for the parton distributions in hadrons. The parton momenta in the hadron rest frame are derived from a spherically symmetric, Gaussian, distribution having a width motivated by the Heisenberg uncertainty…
Renormalization group evolution equations describing the scale dependence of quantities in quantum chromodynamics (QCD) play a central role in the interpretation of experimental data. Arguably the most important evolution equations for…
1) We discuss a sum rule of the tensor structure function $b_1(x)$ for spin-one hadrons along with the Gottfried sum rule. Both sum rules are similar in the sense that they are phenomenological ones based on a naive parton model. As the…
