We investigate the parton distribution functions (PDFs) of the pion and the kaon by combining quantum chromodynamics (QCD) evolution with the basis light front quantization. The initial PDFs result from the light front wave functions…

Quasi-PDFs provide a path toward an ab initio calculation of parton distribution functions (PDFs) using lattice QCD. One of the problems faced in calculations of quasi-PDFs is the renormalization of a nonlocal operator. By introducing an…

We investigate the renormalon ambiguity from bubble-chain diagrams in the isovector unpolarized quasi-parton distribution function (PDF) of a hadron. We confirm the assertion by Braun, Vladimirov and Zhang (arXiv:1810.00048) that the…
