We present calculations of the structure functions F_2(x,Q^2) and F_L(x,Q^2), concentrating on small x. After discussing the standard expansion of the structure functions in powers of \alpha_s(Q^2) we consider a leading-order expansion in…
The higher twist corrections $h^N(x)/Q^2$ to the spin dependent proton and neutron structure functions $g_1^N(x, Q^2)$ are extracted in a model independent way from experimental data on $g_1^N$ and found to be non-negligible. It is shown…

We extend our previous results on small-x resummation in the pure Yang--Mills theory to full QCD with nf quark flavours, with a resummed two-by-two matrix of resummed quark and gluon splitting functions. We also construct the corresponding…
We present a new perspective on the study of the behavior of the strong coupling $\alpha_s(Q^2)$ -- the fundamental coupling underlying the interactions between quarks and gluons as described by the Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) -- in the…
We present consistently ordered calculations of the structure functions F_2(x,Q^2) and F_L(x,Q^2), in different expansion schemes. After discussing the standard expansion in powers of alpha_s(Q^2) we consider a leading-order expansion in…
We reanalyze the $\gamma\gamma^{*} \to \pi^{0}$ transition form factor $F_{\pi\gamma}(Q^2)$ within the QCD light-cone sum rules method with the twist-4 accuracy. In computations the pion leading twist distribution amplitude (DA) with two…
Within the framework of QCD factorization, we discuss various important corrections arising from higher twist distribution amplitudes of mesons in the hadronic B decays.
The pion electromagnetic form factor F_{\pi}(Q^{2}) is calculated at the leading order of pQCD using the running coupling constant (\alpha_{S}(Q^{2}(1-x)(1-y))) approach. The resummed expression for F_{\pi}(Q^{2}) is found. It is shown that…
We use chiral effective theory to predict the deuteron form factor ratio G_C/G_Q as well as ratios of deuteron to nucleon form factors. These ratios are calculated to next-to-next-to-leading order. At this order the chiral expansion for the…
The twist 2 and twist 3 contributions of the polarized deep-inelastic structure functions are calculated both for neutral and charged current interactions using the operator product expansion in lowest order in QCD. The relations between…
We study the threshold corrections for inclusive deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) and their all-order resummation. Using recent results for the QCD form factor, related anomalous dimensions and Mellin moments of DIS structure functions at…
Quark-hadron duality is studied in a systematic way for polarized and unpolarized structure functions, by taking into account all the available data in the resonance region. In both cases, a precise perturbative QCD based analysis of the…
Since b quark mass is not asymptotically large, chirally enhanced corrections which arise from twist-3 wave functions may be important in B decays. We thus evaluate the hadronic matrix elements with the emitted meson described by leading…
Because of the infrared renormalons, it is difficult to get power accuracy in the traditional approach to the Wilson's operator product expansion. Based on a new perturbative renormalization scheme for power-divergent operators, I propose a…
We present calculations of structure functions using a renormalization scheme consistent expansion which is leading order in both ln(1/x) and \alpha_s(Q^2). There is no factorization scheme dependence, and the ``physical anomalous…
We discuss the renormalon-based approach to power corrections in non-singlet deep inelastic scattering structure functions and compare it with the general operator product expansion. The renormalon technique and its variations relate the…
