Motivated by the need to correct the potentially large kinematic errors in approximations used in the standard formulation of perturbative QCD, we reformulate deeply inelastic lepton-proton scattering in terms of gauge invariant, universal…
Following the proposal in [1], we study the feasibility to calculate the pion distribution amplitude (DA) from suitably chosen Euclidean correlation functions at large momentum. In our lattice study we employ the novel momentum smearing…
In large-momentum effective theory (LaMET), calculating parton physics starts from calculating coordinate-space-$z$ correlation functions $\tilde h(z, a,P^z)$ in a hadron of momentum $P^z$ in lattice QCD. Such correlation functions involve…
We discuss the recent progress in extracting partonic functions from the quasi-distribution approach, using twisted mass fermions. This concerns, among others, the investigation of several sources of systematic effects. Their careful…
In the literature it is assumed that the parton to hadron fragmentation function cannot be studied by using the lattice QCD method because of the sum over the (unobserved) outgoing hadronic states. However, in this paper we find that since…
Large momentum effective theory allows extraction of hadron parton distribution functions in lattice QCD by matching them to quark bilinear matrix elements of hadrons with large momenta. We calculate the matching kernels for the…
We review both the counting rule and the influence of the evolution in $Q^2$ for the large $x_{Bj}$ behaviour of the valance quark distribution functions. Based on a factorization procedure we present a more general perturbative treatment…
Transverse-momentum-dependent parton distribution functions are analyzed in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering at low transverse momentum using soft-collinear effective theory. The transverse-momentum-dependent parton distribution…

We perform a one-loop study of the small-$z_3^2$ behavior of the Ioffe-time distribution (ITD) ${\cal M} (\nu, z_3^2)$, the basic function that may be converted into parton pseudo- and quasi-distributions. We calculate the corrections at…
In these proceedings we discuss recent progress in nucleon structure using lattice QCD simulations at or near the physical value of the pion mass. Main focus will be given in observables such as the nucleon axial charge and the first…
We investigate unpolarized and polarized gluon distributions and their applications to the Ioffe-time distributions, which are related to lattice QCD calculations of parton distribution functions. Guided by the counting rules based on the…
The quark generalised parton distributions of the pion are calculated from lightcone wavefunctions in transverse lattice gauge theory at large N_c. The pion effective size is found to decrease with increasing momentum transfer. An analytic…
The prospects of extracting transport coefficients from euclidean lattice simulations are discussed. Some general comments on the reconstruction of spectral functions using the Maximal Entropy Method are given as well.
We examine the singular behavior from the endpoint region x -> 1 in parton distributions unintegrated in both longitudinal and transverse momenta. We identify and regularize the singularities by using the subtraction method, and compare…
We derive evolution equations for the truncated Mellin moments of the parton distributions. We find that the equations have the same form as those for the partons themselves. The modified splitting function for n-th moment $P'(n,x)$ is…
Precise quantification of the structure of nucleons is one of the crucial aims of hadronic physics for the coming years. The expected progress related to ongoing and planned experiments should be accompanied by calculations of partonic…
