We argue that parton distributions in coordinate space provide a more natural object for nonperturbative methods compared to the usual momentum distributions in which the physics of different longitudinal distances is being mixed. To…
The strong coupling $\alpha_s$ is extracted with high precision through fits to lattice-QCD data for the static energy. Our theoretical framework is based on R-improving the three-loop fixed-order prediction for the static energy: we remove…
We present the first lattice-QCD calculation of the unpolarized strange and charm parton distribution functions using large-momentum effective theory (LaMET). We use a lattice ensemble with 2+1+1 flavors of highly improved staggered quarks…

We use an idea from sieve theory to estimate the distribution of the lengths of $k$th shortest vectors in a random lattice of covolume 1 in dimension $n$. This is an improvement of the results of Rogers and S\"odergren in that it allows $k$…

A possible application of the evolution equation for the truncated Mellin moments to determination of the parton distributions in the nucleon is presented. We find that the reconstruction of the initial parton densities at scale $Q_0^2$…
We examine the sources of parton distribution errors in the $W$ mass measurement, and point out shortcomings in the existing literature. Optimistic assumptions about strategies to reduce the error by normalizing to $Z$ observables are…

We present the ultraviolet poles and finite terms of two-loop vertex corrections for diagrams with massive partons in the eikonal approximation. We discover and prove that the results for a set of the corrections generalize to n-loop…
We report on the first lattice determination of the pseudoscalar meson $\eta_c$ light-cone distribution amplitude, using a set of three CLS $N_f=2$ ensembles at a pion mass $m_{\pi} \sim 270~\text{MeV}$ and lattice spacings $a \sim…

I report on a numerical program for the evolution of parton distributions. The program uses the Mellin-transform method with an optimized contour. Due to this optimized contour the program needs only a few evaluations of the integrand and…
We show that the one-loop QCD correction to deeply-virtual Compton scattering can be factorized into the finite perturbative contributions and the collinearly-divergent terms, which correspond to the matrix elements of the off-forward…
We examine the relation of moments of parton distribution functions to matrix elements of non-local operators computed in lattice quantum chromodynamics. We argue that after the continuum limit is taken, these non-local matrix elements give…
