In this thesis we explore a diverse array of issues that strike at the inherently nonperturbative structure of hadrons at momenta below the QCD confinement scale. In so doing, we mainly seek a better control over the partonic substructure…

A pedagogical overview of the formulation of the Fat Link Irrelevant Clover (FLIC) fermion action and its associated phenomenology is described. The scaling analysis indicates FLIC fermions provide a new form of nonperturbative O(a)…
It is shown that neutrino and antineutrino deep inelastic scattering of unpolarized and polarized $\Lambda$ and $\bar{\Lambda}$ productions, can provide a clean separation of unpolarized and polarized fragmentation functions of a quark into…
Recent work unambiguously resolves the level of charge symmetry violation in moments of parton distributions using 2+1-flavor lattice QCD. We introduce the methods used for that analysis by applying them to determine the strong contribution…
Employing the spin-flavor representation, we investigate the structures of the doubler-mixing symmetries and the mechanisms of their spontaneous breakdown in four types of lattice fermion formulation. We first revisit the $U(4)\timesU(4)A$…
Within the collective coordinate approach to chiral soliton models we suggest that breaking of SU(3) flavor symmetry mainly resides in the baryon wave-functions while the charge operators have no (or only small) symmetry breaking…

The polarization of $\Lambda$ hyperons is preserved in the angular distribution of their decay products. This property allows one to study the spin structure of the $\Lambda$. In Semi-Inclusive Deep Inelastic Scattering where a high energy…
